Jet Grouted Settlement Isolation Wall at the Henry Ford Avenue Grade Separation
The grade separation included a mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) approach embankment 9.5 meters high and located two to five meters away from State Route 47 bridge approach foundations. Even with ground improvement, beneath the MSE embankment, unacceptably high static settlement influence was calculated along SR47. To reduce this influence, a settlement isolation wall (SIW) was conceived, designed, and constructed between the two. The SIW consisted of a 100- to 300-mm wide, 15-meter deep weakened plane constructed using jet grouting. During construction, settlement monitoring points established on the SR-47 improvements and MSE wall panels confirmed reasonable effectiveness of the system.
