ABSTRACT

The chemical grouting has the advantages that equipments are small and the direction of boring has flexibility. Therefore, in Japan, it is frequently used for a soil-improvement method in the railway construction site where workspace or working hours is limited. However, it has the possibility to cause a ground displacement around the site. Because there is no method that estimates it quantitatively, the design based on old cases is still used mainly and focuses on safety overly.

In this Study, the simplified numerical analysis for ground behavior due to the osmotic pressure during injection is proposed.
