Experimental Study on Groutability of Sand Layer concerning Permeation Grouting
2021
Permeation grouting is widely used in grouting engineering because of its low grouting pressure and minor disturbance to the stratum. However, influenced by the complex properties of sand layer and slurry, an accurate prediction of the groutability of the sand layer remains to be a hard work. In this paper, the permeability of sand layer is studied based on a self-designed permeation grouting test device, which considers the different sand particle size, relative density of sand layer, slurry water-cement ratio, and clay content. The influencing factors of sand layer groutability are analyzed, and the different parameters that affect the grouting of sand layer are evaluated, thus proposing a new approach to predict the groutability of sand layer. Results show that the sand particle size and slurry water-cement ratio are positively related to the groutability of sand layer, and the relative density and clay content of sand layer are negatively correlated with the groutability of sand layer. The proposed alternative empirical formula to estimate the groutability of sand layer will help predict the groutability of sand layer with a higher degree of accuracy, which can provide a certain reference for engineering.
