Grouting Operations, Catskill Water Supply
Grout was used extensively in the structures of the Catskill Water Supply System for filling spaces behind the lining of tunnels, for cutting off the flow of water into shafts and tunnels by grouting the water-bearing fissures, for solidifying the foundations and stopping the flow beneath dams, and for various other purposes. The object of this paper is to give a summary of the experience and results obtained in the use of grout in the construction of the aqueduct, dams, and other structures of the Catskill Works, with the hope that it may prove valuable to those undertaking work involving grouting.
