I'm pouring a triangle pad. Pretty small. Right triangle with the two adjacent sides about 6 feet and 8 feet. One side is against the slab foundation of the house and another side is an existing concrete pool deck. I've drilled holes for rebar into the existing pool deck to attach the pads. I didn't touch the house foundation. Cushion sand base is down.

I need to add a drain along one side where the existing pool deck is meaning I need both an expansion joint and drain. The pad will be 4 inches.

Do I trim the expansion joint down a couple inches to fit the channel drain?
