DESCRIPTION
TRANSCRIPT
? • Grout is a construction material used to seal
joints, fill voids, embed rebars in masonry walls, and connect sections of pre-cast concrete.
types
• Cement-based grout - sanded or non-sanded varieties - choice depends on joint width - easy to work with
types
• Epoxy-based grout - sanded or non-sanded varieties - made of resin and hardener - higher stain resistance
types
• Furan resin grout - sanded or non-sanded varieties - contains alcohol (furfuryl) instead of water - very high resistance to chemicals
Tiles When grout does its job right, it…
• Locks tiles tight • Keeps water out • Gives floors and walls a finished look • Makes tiles stronger • Prevents the edges of a tile from chipping and
cracking
Jet Grouting
Injects grout at high pressure and velocity, destroying the soil structure and mixing grout and soil to form a homogeneous mass.
Permeation Grouting
controlled injection of low viscosity grout that will allow fluid or gas migration.
Fracture Grouting
It is the injection and hydro fracturing with grout slurry of the soil between the foundation to be controlled and the process causing the
settlement.
