CONSTRUCTION OF NAIGAJ DAM PROJECT-APPI _ REQUEST (AR) NO. 01-GROUTING IN MAIN DAM ired by General Manager(C&M) Water vide NP-03,Para-15.this 0 wed the “Main Dam report on foundation Geology” of Nai Gaj Dam ‘basis of which subject appropriation request has been prepared and comm It is mentioned in the report that out of excavated 420m length of core trench, 413m is composed of conglomerate beds (28.5%). These conglomerate beds have two problems, firstly its driling is difficult and secondly, its pony” ‘cemented having no proper geological formation .Grouting in such formation will not be effective to control seepage constituted about 48 % in length out of 420m fh. As clays are present, hence grouting will .g with slurry of the grouting. Silty clay /clayey silt component c of excavated section of core trencl not be possible as clay have no bindin: e in nature. A high Lugeon value 9 This sandstone is loosely jomted and (rab e loss of grouting material depicts high porosity which results in excessiv Sill stone has higher Lugeon value of 18.62, showing high porosity and more ‘chances of grout loss. d design of grouting inno way fulfils the zones present in the strata, proper : z
