Cavity Treatment
The method of grouting for void filling is an effective way to fill the voids in a concrete structure. Grouting can be used to fill cracks, gaps, or spaces in concrete structures. It is also used for waterproofing and for curing problems.
Void fill Grouting is often required when the roof of a void collapses, a sinkhole or depression emerges, causing deformation of the ground surface, or when pre-construction site testing reveals such possible faults.
Advantages
- It seals cracks and joints in concrete structures.
- It provides a waterproof barrier that prevents water from entering cracks or joints in concrete structures.
- It reduces the amount of moisture that can travel through the concrete when it rains or snows. This helps prevent damage from water penetration in your home or business building
- Increased strength and durability
- Improved resistance to chemical attack
- Reduced permeability
- Higher compressive strength
- Less susceptibility to cracking under load
- Fast: Grouting can take only a few hours, compared to weeks or months for other methods.
- Environmentally friendly: Concrete is one of the most environmentally friendly construction materials available today.
- Reduced costs associated with re-routing pipes or otherwise repairing them when they become damaged or clogged by debris that gets into the cracks between concrete slabs during construction or other projects.
Ideal Solution:
The method of filling the void depends on a number of criteria, including the position of the water table, the size of the hollow, its proximity to the surface, and its proximity to structures.
Filling the hole below with cement-based Portland cement or chemical grouts and foams is a typical and inexpensive technique for stabilizing the subsurface and preventing sinking. This procedure involves installing pipes that connect the surface to the void below using pneumatic or drilling equipment. The pipes operate as conduits, allowing the grout to be placed in the subsurface space.
