Abstract

This Chapter is an Introduction assisting the reader in understanding basic issues of the grouting Technology. First, the categories (simple, binary, ternary) of grouts are presented in combination with the cases of their use. Subsequently, the main performances required from a hydraulic grout are enumerated; thus, the corresponding design parameters of a grout-mix become clear. A design procedure is then described, with references to the relevant parts of the book, where the reader will find detailed assistance. Finally, it is reminded that the experimental verification of the performances of the “trial mix” has to be carried out in laboratory as well as (occasionally) in situ.
