Webinar Brief
More and more frequently Jet Grouting is designed by Geotechnical Engineers or proposed by Specialty Contractors as a soil improvement technique. The basic concepts of this technology have already been the object of a previous ASCE webinar (Introduction to Jet Grouting and its Applications). This more advanced webinar will cover the GI guideline specifications, and why the sub-committee arrived at the final document, based on specific case histories and examples. The importance of the spoil/reflow return, shadowing effect and new tooling will be analyzed.
Primary Discussion Topics
- Review of ASCE-GI Grouting Committee Jet Grouting Guideline Specifications (last issue2016)
- Explain how the committee arrived at the final version of the specifications based on Jet Grouting Case Histories and examples
- Review of the acceptance criteria
- Analyze the importance of spoil return
- Discuss shadowing in jet grouting
