Dry packing and grouting of substructure salvages 90-year-old Montreal bridge
Grouting under pressure successfully used to replace mortar and solidify masonry of piers built in 1854 for bridge across St Lawrence River; deteriorated stones in exterior masonry replaced by packing with crushed stone and intruding grout into it; long approach abutments have been strengthened by forming new arch underneath original by dry packing crushed stone against arch and forcing grout into it to make concrete.
