‘s system of cement injection under high pressure is considered nowadays the ultimate solution for an
environmentally acceptable ground improvement injections.
|
The system has the following advantages:
|
-
No chemicals are injected into the soil.
|
|
|
-
The injection body has a relatively high compressive strength.
|
-
Can be used in almost all types of soils.
|
Drilling / flushing can be carried out by almost all known rotary drilling machines. Once the final depth has been reached, the changeover between flushing and injection is made by a valve which is located in the jet housing.
|
The high pressure grouting stream is produced by a nozzle fixed at the lower end of the drilling rod, cutting into the surrounding soil. Usually the jet stream consists of a mix of water or / and air together with cement suspension.
|
The grout columns are formed by continuously rotating and pulling up the drilling rod. The diameter and depth of the column are
influenced by the following parameters:
|
-
Pulling speed of the drilling rod.
|
|
|
-
Rotation speed of the rod (RPM).
|
-
Diameter of the used nozzle.
