Abstract

This paper briefly reports the two recent major jet grouting applications in Turkey where jet grouting was employed in order to control and limit the excessive settlement of the foundations and to reduce the risk of liquefaction are described. The main emphasis is given to selection of the jet grouting technique and the quality- control tests carried out during jet grout installations. The paper also describes application types and details of the operational parameters such as injection pressure, number and size of nozzles, lifting and rotation speeds.
