Summary: |
This book assembles information on rock and soil grouting. Some aspects of permeability testing of rock and soils are elaborated, and the use of theoretical ground water percolation studies for clarification of design options for grout curtains are presented. The results achieved by grouting are presented and analyzed on examples of constructed grouting works (curtains, tunnels, foundations, lifting of structures). |
