The low slump mortar grouting is widely used in reinforcement of structural foundation and ground improvement in soft ground. It also has merit that construction is possible in insufficient space. In this study, the main purpose is to evaluate effects for contiguous structures that can be happened along with soft ground improvement by the low slump mortar grouting. To estimate these effects, numerical analysis using finite difference method was applied. It was performed to analyze settlement, upheaval and horizontal displacement of surrounding ground and to measure horizontal stress variation by the first and the second grouting in the pile foundation.

In generally, grouting consists of injecting a suspension or solution into the voids of soils. The low slump mortar grout has been used in America since 1950's. The Compaction Grouting, the injection of a very stiff under relatively high pressure, form a cylinderical grout support pile. The grout generally does not enter soil pores but remains in homogeneous mass that gives controlled displacement either to compact loose soils, or for lifting of structures, or both. In this paper, on the case of the reinforcement construction of 00 plant that the foundation's bearing capacity is insufficient and is to reinforce the foundation, a study has been peformed to analyze the effectiveness of the ground improvement. The bearing capacity of the Compaction Pile has been verified by the S.P.T and the settlement of the improved ground has been monitored rising the magnetic extensometer.

Low slump mortar grouting is widely used in reinforcement of structural foundation and ground improvement in soft ground, and has advantage which construction is possible in insufficient space. However it has been not yet studied sufficiently to estimate the effect of ground improvement in design step and to prove the estimating method. So the method must be developed in order to use the low slump mortar grouting method in various cases. In this study, the field tests were performed in the reclaimed soils to measure the effect of ground improvement. Then it was compared with what was calculated by the existing formula that was formerly suggested. The results show that the value from the formula was similar with the value from the field tests. Also it was proved that the formula was available to estimate the effect of ground improvement in the loose granular soils.

The properties of Low-heat cement are especially in lower heat of hydration than that of other types of cement. In other respect, Low-heat concrete is more advantageous than OPC concrete in chemical resistance, long term age compressive strength, slump loss and resistance to seawater. This paper deals with 28 days age compressive strength and slump loss by elapsed time of mortar and concrete that made with Low-heat cement and 3 types of other cement.

Compaction Grouting System, the method which makes ground compact by injection of low slump mortar, Is widely used for reinforcement of soft ground, restoration of structures happened differential settlement, underpinning and restoration of damaged dam core. The quantitive analysis of ground improvement for this method has not performed yet. So, design parameters about thls method must be studied through performance of CGS in various types of soil to make CGS adaptable widely. In this study PBT, SPT and field density test were performed for analysis of the characteristics of ground improvement and pressuremeter and inclinometer were installed for analysis of the characteristics of compaction in adjacent ground. In this paper, denoted much effects for filled ground that increasing of the bearing capacity, confirming the displacement of adjacent ground and the effective radius of injection.

In this study, the stress concentration ratio for the improved material of the low slump mortar grouting was evaluated through the composite ground method, the ground arching theory, the plastic angle method, the 2D and 3D numerical analysis and the 3D model experiment. The stress concentration ratio calculated by the composite ground method was 89.3, 3.75~59.0 when the three-dimensional ground arching theory was applied, and 82.8 for the three-dimensional plastic angle method. As a result of the 2D numerical analysis, the stress concentration ratio was 63.0~77.0, which was found to increase as the improvement ratio increased. The results of 3D numerical analysis were predicted to be 50.0~56.0 smaller than the results of 2D analysis. In the case of a special model experiment using a large triaxial compression cell, the stress concentration ratio for each load step was 53.0~60.0, and the stress concentration ratio evaluated by the experiment was measured within 2D and 3D numerical analysis predictions. In this study, a predictive equation for the stress concentration ratio according to the improvement ratio is proposed based on the analysis and experimental values for the improved ratio of the low slump mortar grouting.

In this study the pilot test of CGS as injection method by low slump mortar was performed and the results were analyzed in order to find out the application of this method and effect of settlement restraint. The site far pilot test is adjacent to apartments supported by pile foundations. Sand drain method was performed previously as countermeasures against settlement, but settlement occur continuously because this ground is very soft. Site investigations such as SPT, DCPT and vane shear test were performed to determine the characteristics of ground improvement. Field measurements and FDM analysis were performed on purpose to find out the displacement of ground during injection works. From the results of this study, CGS method can be optimized by the control of diagram, space, depth, injection material, and injection pressure. CGS improved soft ground compositely by the bearing effect of CGS columns and reinforcement of adjacent ground. Considering that increase of N value is about 2.1, CGS can be considered as an effective method to increase the bearing capacity as well as to stop the settlement of soft ground. It is also expected to be economic and effective in improvement of ground when it is used in applicable sites.

The CGS method is non-discharge replacement method improving ground stiffness by the effect of static compaction with injecting very low slump mortar into ground, and is applied for increasing bearing capacity and filling ground cavity by lifting or restoring differential settled structures and preventing differential settlement. This paper suggests design of ground improvement and construction case history for civil engineering structures by CGS method. This method can be used for reinforcing soft ground and liquefaction of loose sandy soil. This method was used in SongDo area in Incheon Economic Free Zone due to its low vibration of ground while it can improve the soft soil where underground structures(subway and box culvert) are already existed.

This study is to analyze the difference by comparing the physical properties of general Portland cement (OPC) and low-heat Portland cement (LHC) in the market to develop low-heat cement manufacturing technology that can minimize the amount of limestone by using non-carbonate circulating resources as raw materials. To this end, the mortar is being reviewed by evaluating the properties of the mortar, such as slump, strength, durability, and thermal insulation properties, with a difference in the mixing ratio.

It has been increasingly proving in interest of environment pollution around the world. so, recycling of waste resources are seriously taken into consideration. Great deal of coolant for the car have been wasted for along time. due to the end of life time of them. Therefore, validities of wasted coolant as an agent for concrete are described in this paper. Mechanical properties of concrete using coolant wastes is investigated. As contents of coolant wastes increase, slump and slump flow decrease, while air content show reverse tendency. setting time shows to be accelerated with increase of waste contents. As for the effect of low curing temperature, low curing temperature increase compressive strength with increase of coolant waste. Application of coolant waste to cold weather concrete is considered to achieve favorable effects.
