Dam Foundation Grouting: Revised and Expanded Edition provides a
state-of-the-practice review of all aspects of drilling and
grouting-based technologies used for dam foundation treatment. Like its
first edition, this book provides readers with background information
and guidance to help them understand and deal more confidently with
issues related to the design, construction, supervision, analysis, and
review of grouting programs. This new edition of Dam Foundation Grouting
has been revised to reflect contemporary grouting practice and has been
substantially enlarged to include coverage of geologic considerations
and to address remedial grouting issues. In addition to providing
extensive information on grouting technology, equipment, and procedures,
it also provides guidance of specifications and contracts. Dam
engineers, dam construction engineers, grouting supervisors and
inspectors, field personnel of dam safety reviewing agencies, and
engineering students will all benefit from this book.
