Chemical Grouting

Our techniques apply when adding new structures: especially rock anchor, microfine cement, soil nailing, micropile installations for foundation support. We specialize in slope stabilization, anchors, permeation grouting, foundation repair and support, grouting, soil nails, rock drilling, micropile installations, and sinkholes. We use a problem-solving approach geotechnical architecture of buildings, bridges, water plants, sewage plants, tunnels, sinkholes, caisson, shoring, underpinning, agriculture, and roads construction. We are experienced in these applications: micro piles, sinkhole repair, permeation grouting, pressure grout, soil nails, chemical grouting, micropiles, compaction grout, and rock anchors. Our specialties are rock anchor, acrylamide and compaction grouting, mini piles, sinkhole repair, micropiles, acrylamide grouting, and soil nailing. We will continue to dedicate ourselves to excellence, including insurance mortgage, in our performance, in our integrity, and in our relationships with our customers. We will carefully weigh our decisions, actions, and results to make sure that we remain the most trusted name in the geotechnical contracting industry.

whether to use casing to stabilize the drilled hole, dewater the drilled hole, or drill the hole
and place concrete under wet conditions using the slurry displacement method. In some
cases, the site conditions are known to be wet or unstable. These conditions may be shown
on the Log of Test Borings or in the Foundation Report. Sometimes experience on adjacent
projects may also give an indication of the site conditions.

Figure 9-1: Slurry Displacement Method
Drilling slurries are generally introduced into the drilled hole as soon as groundwater or
caving materials are encountered. As drilling continues to full depth, the drilling slurry is
maintained at a constant level until the tip elevation of the drilled hole is reached (Figure
9-1(a)). Because the drilling operation mixes soil cuttings with the drilling slurry, it is
necessary to remove the soil cuttings from the drilling slurry. Depending on the type of
drilling slurry used, removing the soil cuttings may be accomplished by physically cleaning
the drilling slurry, or by allowing a settlement period for the soil cuttings to settle out of the
drilling slurry. Depending on the type of drilling slurry used, a process called filtration may
