This thesis presents the results of a case study on the penetration diameter of cement based
permeation grout in soil with respect to various grouting parameter. Different imperial
relationship between soil properties and grouting characteristics are also presented.
An experimental study on the penetration diameter of cement grout mixes with water/cement
ratio (W/C, by weight) of 1.0, & 1.5 is observed under constant grout discharge at various depth.
Again the observation is taken with respect to constant injection pressure at various depth. Field
samples are collected and compression strength are performed and compared with laboratory test
samples.
The present research provides with the following useful information for enhancing the design
and application of cement based permeation grouting using existing flow models in design
practice.
1. To provide an empirical relationship between injection diameter and injection pressure
with respect to water cement ratio and nature of soil.
2. To provide an empirical relationship between injection diameter and injection rate with
respect to different water cement ratio and nature of soil.
3. To provide an empirical relationship between injection pressure and injection rate with
respect to different Field SPT.
4. Comparative study of strength of grouted soil samples from field to the strength of
grouted soil in laboratory.

Radial Flow model for porous media through Cylindrical Cavity for Newtonian Fluid
Net pressure (Pe) in excess of local hydrostatic pressure necessary to maintain the flow through a
cylindrical cavity is a function of the grouting rate, the soil permeability and the viscosity of
grout as expressed in the following relationship.
The time required to travel a distance R from a spherical cavity with radius Ro can be computed

TEST PROCEDURE
COSTANT INJECTION RATE
Four permeation tests are proposed at field level to verify the penetration radius of cement based
grout under constant injection rate with water cement ratio 1.0 and 1.5 respectively.
Total permeation depth is considered to be 6m. We have assumed the distance (m) between the
peckers is 2.0m. Radius of the hole is 0.1m. Injection rate is kept constant at a particular depth
for a specified period of time and injection pressure is measured.
Following Properties of grout is assumed to determine theoretical injection diameter
