  1. 1. Grouting of Fractured Rock with Silica Sol; Grouting design based on penetration length

    Author : Johan Funehag; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Grouting; hydraulic test; sand column; propagation; penetration length; pipe flow; aperture; transmissivity; colloidal silica; silica sol; rheology; gelling liquids; field study;

    Abstract : ABSTRACTRecent grouting projects in Sweden have concentrated on the grout itself. The only grout normally used in Sweden is cement-based. During the past 10 years, the acceptable flow of water into tunnels has been reduced significantly. The current requirements mean that an average fracture aperture of around 0. READ MORE

  2. 2. Grouting of Hard Rock with Gelling Liquids, Field and Laboratory Studies of Silica sol

    Author : Johan Funehag; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []

    Abstract : Recent grouting projects in Sweden have concentrated on the grout itself. The only grout normally used in Sweden is a cement-based one. During the past 10 years, the acceptable flow of water into tunnels has been significantly reduced. The current requirements mean that an average fracture aperture of around 0. READ MORE

  3. 3. Chemical Rock Grouting. An Experimental Study on Polyurethane Foams

    Author : Helen Andersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Grouting is used to change the physical characteristics of concrete, soil and rock. The changes are usually related to permeability and/or strength. Although the most widely used grout for sealing of rock masses is cement suspension, there are certain conditions where polyurethane grout is used as a complement. READ MORE

  4. 4. Groundwater chemistry affected by underground construction activities

    Author : Fredrik Mossmark; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : A leaking underground construction increases the groundwater recharge and decreases the residence time of the groundwater. If groundwater of a certain chemical composition dominated the location inside the bedrock of a planned tunnel prior to the construction phase, this water is likely to be replaced by water of a different chemical type because of leakage of water into the tunnel during the construction and operational phases.
