Abstract: A methodology for cost-effective design of jet grouted water-sealing bottom plugs is presented in this paper. These massive barriers, made of partially overlapping jet grouted columns, are required to ensure temporary ...

Abstract: Low-pressure injection of nanosilica aqueous suspensions is often adopted to either waterproof or increase the liquefaction resistance of granular soils. The basic principle behind this ground improvement technique consists ...

Abstract: The low viscosity and the ability to control solidification rate make colloidal nanosilica grout an excellent ground-improvement solution which is functional for different engineering purposes. A comprehensive experimental ...
