High-pressure jet grouting is widely used in the construction of cut-off wall in hydraulic engineering. Compared to the high-pressure jet grouting used for foundation improvement, the high-pressure jet grouting cut-off wall of hydraulic engineering has lower requirements for the advance consolidation and provision of bearing capacity, and more focus on providing an anti-seepage effect and ensuring the continuous integrity of the wall. In the past, the research on high-pressure jet grouting focused more on the application to foundation treatments, and the research on the construction efficiency of cut-off wall is relatively insufficient. Therefore, in this study, a self-developed ipsilateral multi-nozzle jet grouting machine with a large drill diameter and construction method are proposed according to the construction characteristics of the embankment cut-off wall in hydraulic engineering. Based on the dyke protection projects, Jinggangshan navigation hydropower and Xingan navigation hydropower, the large-diameter, multi-nozzle, high-pressure jet cut-off wall test is carried out, and the wall forming effect of the cut-off wall is verified through the combination of indoor and outdoor tests. The results show that the proposed construction method can adapt to the formation conditions in which it is difficult to implement conventional high-pressure jet grouting, and obtains good construction efficiency. A favorable wall quality can be obtained by using more efficient large-diameter and ipsilateral multi-nozzle jet grouting in the construction of high-pressure jet cut-off wall.
