Grouting for Pile Foundation Improvement
The aim of this research was to examine the use of grouting methods for pile foundation improvement, a generic term that is used here to define both foundation renovation (increasing the bearing capacity of a pile foundation that has insufficient bearing capacity) and foundation protection (safeguarding the piles of the foundation against possible damage resulting from underground construction activities in the vicinity). First some definitions and standards relating to pile foundations are outlined after which a short account of pile foundation history is given. Subsequently the causes and detection of foundation damage and possible methods for foundation renovation are explained. One of these methods, foundation improvement by means of grouting techniques, can usually be executed from outside the structure and therefore the need to shore up the structure is avoided. However this application did raise questions regarding the response of the foundation piles to the installation process and to the grouting process, thus it was considered necessary to conduct further research.
