Construction Challenges During the Remedial Grouting of the Thames River Bridge
During replacement of the center bascule span of the Amtrak Thames River Bridge with a lift span structure, significant settlement occurred in the bascule pier. The pier was stabilized by solidifying the underlying soil by methodological injection of grout. This paper describes the construction aspects of an unusually large permeation grouting program which was undertaken to arrest settlement of a 92-year-old bridge pier.
