SIMULATION OF GROUTING A HOLE Pretend that you are doing grouting. Let the simulation guide you with the grouting, or try the various possibilities yourself and find out what they would probably produce in a real hole. Intended primarily for guidance when training

       MORE INFORMATION about grouting can be found in this book; it complements these programmes and provides thorough coverage of the subject. Grouting methods are fully detailed and explained; their applicability to various engineering projects is dealt with in detail and many other aspects are covered. Written in an easy-to-read manner, the book is arranged as a reference manual with numerous cross references. It is essentially a guide rather than being a 'recipe book'. Numerous humorous touches reflect the quirky sense of fun of the author (myself). For info see-

    ~ GOOGLE BOOKS shows some of the book on screen. Some other booksellers do likewise,
    ~ AMAZON SITE ...........and many other bookshops around the world, sell it, sometimes at very high prices.

After writing the book I copied it onto DVD and added many improvements, photos, animations, colour for everything and automatic calculating for batching and reporting. The result is somewhat like a second edition but is digital rather than being a printed book. I suggest that the resulting DVD is more useful than the printed book and than the on-screen copies from it mentioned above. However, the publisher, who holds the copyright for the book has expressed reluctance to sell it in DVD form and so the DVD cannot be distributed at present because of these copyright considerations.
It has been possible, though, to show many of these improvements in these present programmes, where they come under my own copyright, for which there is no charge.

My book mentioned above concentrates on cement grout. Not only for this but for other types of grout used in engineering activities attention is drawn to a companion book:
PRACTICAL HANDBOOK OF GROUTING in Soil, Rock and Structures, by JAMES WARNER. Published by John Wiley and Sons, 2004. .. ISBN 0-471-46303-5
It provides a thorough treatment based on its author's many years' of grouting, initially as a contractor and then as a consultant, particularly as a trouble-shooter. As well as discoursing on common usage and easy projects, it delves into esetoric and abstruse applications, the scope of which is unlikely to have been encountered by any other grouting engineer. Jim Warner has long been regarded as one of the leaders of the profession.
