The aim of this experimental study was to investigate the penetrability of ultrafine Portland cement suspensions with or without additives into sand specimens and the strength and permeability of grouted sand samples. It was shown that ultrafine Portland cement grouts with dispersive agent could be used to treat not only medium to fine sand but also 100% fine sand where chemical grouts can only penetrate The basic rheological properties of ultrafine Portland cement suspensions with or without additives were studied. The penetration performance of suspensions into various graded medium to fine sand specimens prepared at different relative densities was examined. The unconfined compressive strength and the permeability characteristics of sand specimens permeated with ultrafine Portland cement suspensions with or without additives were searched at different time intervals.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
