Shaft Grouting of Deep Foundations in Hong Kong
This paper presents the results of part of a US12 million program of testing of large-scale deep foundations carried out for the Kowloon-Canton, Railway, Corporation, Hong Kong. The results presented are for five tests carried out to demonstrate both the methodology required and the two to three fold enhancement of the factional capacity of a deep foundation that could be achieved by shaft grouting. The recommendations are based on the results of 30MN load tests on two barrettes, 40m and 50m long, and three piles 30m to 54m long carried out for this project, as well as over 30 other tests carried out elsewhere in Hong Kong. The work draws on the experience of the authors with over 40 load tests up to 40MN on grouted and ungrouted piles in Bangkok as well as published case histories in Europe, the Middle East. South Africa and Australia.
