Abstract |
The constructional activities in the different areas specially often demand deep foundations because of the weak engineering properties and the related problems arising from poor soil at shallow depths. The low bearing capacity of the foundation bed causes excessive settlements and shear failure. Also, the high water table and variable depth of the top sandy layer in the areas restrict the depth of foundation and thus reducing the safe bearing capacity. This paper discusses grouting as one of the possible solutions to the foundation problems by improving the properties of soil. Different methods are discussed in the paper for grouting as per the field situation. |
