New Methods for Underpinning and Earth Retention
Support of existing structures, equipment, and utilities requires means and methods that will lend this support without causing any harm. Several methods of grouting can offer support, but only a few can resist compressive loads while also resisting lateral earth pressures. This is particularly so when historic and sensitive structures are in consideration and deformation tolerance is minimal. Several case histories will be presented to illustrate the type of structures that can be supported, along with the processes and procedures that make for a successful project. Jet grouting and chemical grouting technologies will be highlighted.
