Grouting checks foundation vibration
Vibrations set up by compressors of gas station in Wichita, Kan, caused serious trouble in pile foundations of both machines and building in which they are housed; vibrations were practically stopped by grouting 50 ft of sand through which piles were driven; application of grout under pressure was through solid wall pipes, perforated after driving, by ingenious gun that shot bullets through pipe at desired locations.
