Are relative clauses always adjective and adverb clauses?

I am merely wanting to put a conclusion on this.

By most definitions, relative clauses are adjectival only. However, some references include 'sentential relative clauses' (The streets were empty, which was unusual for this time of day.)

Thanks a lot. I've never read this kind of clause until you brought it up. Again, I appreciate it.
