An Introduction to Soil Grouting

Course No. C-3023

Credit: 3 PDH

Course Fee: $86.85 Purchase course

Subject Matter Expert: J. Paul Guyer, P.E., R.A., Fellow ASCE, Fellow AEI

Overview

Grouting is a widely used method for strengthening and sealing rock, soil and concrete. The possibilities for sealing structures are of great importance from both an economic and environmental point of view. The cost of grouting has in certain projects been as high as the cost of blasting and excavating the tunnel. To improve the technique for grouting with cement-based material, it is necessary to examine the properties of the grout mixture used. This course is intended to provide an introduction to soil grouting materials and procedures for those engineers not familiar with the technology and its application.

The student must take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of fifteen (15) questions at the end of this course to earn PDH credits.

 

Specific Knowledge or Skill Obtained

This course teaches the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Learn about the characteristics and applications of the primary soil grouts: Portland-cement, clay, asphalt and chemical
  • Learn about how to improve the performance of grouts with admixtures such as accelerators and lubricants
  • Learn about polymerized grouts including acrylamide, resorcinol-formaldehyde, calcium acrylate and epoxy resin
  • Learn about grouting procedures such as curtain, blanket or area, contact, and mine/cavity grouting
  • Learn about the importance of pressure testing and washing in grouting
  • Learn how groundwater can affect grouting operations
