GROUTING WIDE CRACKS
IN A TROUBLE-FREE APPLICATION

DO YOU THINK YOU SHOULD THICKEN THE GROUT?

In the first 15 minutes the grout taken down the hole was 24.00 cu ft [680 litres]. This is a very large take.

This grouting was done with 0.8:1 grout. It is obvious that the hole will take thicker grout without getting blockages. So it would be sensible if you thickened to 0.6:1.

HENCE, IF YOUR DECISION IS TO THICKEN THE GROUT,
IT WOULD BE APPROPRIATE.

It is necessary to decide what to do next. The choice is from one of the following:

  1. Let the simulation decide what to do next.
  2. Carry on grouting without change.
  3. Thicken the mix
