An overview of unique solutions for integrating injectable barrier wall system for use in subsurface curtain walls, retention walls, and grout barriers. A rigid polymer grout provides a structurally solid solution that can be implemented in an expedient, post construction manner. Overview of the Deep Injection Process which gives the ability to pump grout along multiple injection points under a structure in order to solidify and implement a congruitous curtain for retention or solidification under the surface. The injected polymer grout is designed to expand by 15 times in order to fill ground voids and integrate with the existing soil medias, developing into a rigid structure for solidification. Utilizing the grout technique can help solidify and seal structures which may be experiencing structural integrity issues. The polymer grout can be injected and delivered from a variety of surface points, both horizontally and vertically, providing flexible implementation for a variety of structure types.
This course will review the technical specifications of chemical grout
and its application on soil stabilization. The course will discuss the chemical reaction and
the effect on temperature and pressure as it applied to various soil conditions. The
chemical injection effectiveness and limitations will be discussed at various depths from
3 feet to 50 feet below grade. We will discuss our solution for the following applications:
sub-terrain void fill and high rise underpinning.
seawall, bulkhead, ground water and injectable barrier containment.
culvert, spillway, and sewer and dam repair.
soil stabilization for bridge approaches and rail ballast.
slab lifting.
Samples of chemically treated soil will be handed out to show its inert effect on the
environment as well as its strength/weight ratio.
We will review case studies on chemical grouting applications using national
infrastructure, commercial, and residential cases. Technical calculations, timelines,
safety, logistics and cost savings will be analyzed for each case study to check for
feasibility. The course will conclude with a Q&A session for comparisons to current and
historical projects for the attendees.
