  1. 1. Bleeding and Filtration of Cement-Based Grout

    Author : Almir Draganovic; Håkan Stille; Ulf Lindblom; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Building manufacturing engineering; Byggproduktionsteknik;

    Abstract : Grouting is a common method of sealing rock around tunnels to reduce or stop water inflow. Successful grouting significantly minimizes the maintenance cost and safety of the tunnel. Some questions about bleeding and penetrability of the grouts have to be examined more closely to carry out a successful grouting. READ MORE

  2. 2. Penetrability due to filtration tendency of cement based grouts

    Author : Daniel Eklund; Håkan Stille; Gunnar Gustafson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Construction engineering; grout; grouting; penetrability; filtration tendency; Byggnadsteknik; Building engineering; Byggnadsteknik;

    Abstract : Grouting as a method of strengthening and sealing rock, soil and concrete is widely used. The possibilities of sealing structures are of great importance from both an economical and environmental point of view. The cost of grouting has in certain projects been as high as the cost for the blasting and excavation of the tunnel. READ MORE

  3. 3. An Experimental Study to Measure And Improve the Grout Penetrability

    Author : Ali Nejad Ghafar; Stefan Larsson; Almir Draganovic; Ulf Erik Lindblom; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Penetrability; Filtration; Erosion; Cement-based grout; Grout spread; Grout penetrability measurement; Dynamic grouting; Instantaneous variable pressure; Byggvetenskap; Civil and Architectural Engineering;

    Abstract : An essential demand in any underground facility is to seal it against the water ingress to reduce the time and cost of the construction and the corresponding environmental hazards. To achieve this, obtaining sufficient grout spread is of great importance. READ MORE

  4. 4. On the measurement and application of cement grout rheological properties

    Author : John Shamu; Stefan Larsson; Ulf Håkansson; Johan Funehag; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cement-based grouts; grouting; yield stress fluid YSF ; thixotropy; critical shear rate; radial flow; wall slip; Bingham model; Civil and Architectural Engineering; Byggvetenskap; Materials Science and Engineering; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : The rheological properties of cement-based grouts play a key role in determining the final spread in grouted rock formations. Rheologically, cement grouts are known to be complex thixotropic fluids, but their steady flow behavior is often described by fitting the simple Bingham constitutive law to flow curve data.

  5. 5. Rheology of cement grout  : Ultrasound based in-line measurement technique and grouting design parameters

    Author : Mashuqur Rahman; Stefan Larsson; Ulf Håkansson; Olafur Wallevik; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; grouting; grouting design; cement grout; Bingham number; shear rate; plug flow; thixotropy; yield stress; in-line rheology; UVP PD; Flow-Viz; viscosity bifurcation; aging; off-line rheometry; pump characteristics; Civil and Architectural Engineering; Byggvetenskap;

    Abstract : Grouting is performed in order to decrease the permeability and increase the stiffness of the material, especially soil and rock. For tunnelling and underground constructions, permeation grouting is done where cement based materials are pumped inside drilled boreholes under a constant pressure, higher than the ground water pressure.
