Association of State Dam Safety Officials, 2023



This webinar reviews the principles of rock grouting for new and remedial dam projects. Since the mid-1990s, there have been significant developments in rock grouting technology. Although these advances have been largely driven by the challenges of remedial grouting projects – and in particular those in karstic terrains – the developments are being implemented in foundation treatments for new dams also. This webinar reviews contemporary approaches to design, construction, QA/QC, and verification. These apply to both blanket and curtain grouting applications.

Key Takeaways:

1. Appreciation of advances in grouting technology over the last 30 years and establishment of the state of contemporary practice.

2. Establishment of what can be reasonably anticipated from a grouting project.

3. Review of the risks which are inherent, especially for remedial grouting.

4. Review of the fundamental aspects of a grouting specification.

5. Review of the typical components of a Bill of Quantities.

6. Procurement of a grouting contractor.
