Delivery Methods
Initiation of grouting:
• Typically bottom up but can also be top down
• Grout rheology important (low mobility, not necessarily
low slump)
• Usually pressure and/or volume of grout limited
• Slow, uniform stage injection

Important Geotechnical and
Structural Considerations
Jet grouting is effective across
the widest range of soil types
of any grouting system,
including silts and some clays.
Because it is an erosion based
system, soil erodibility plays a
major role in predicting
geometry, quality and
production. Cohesionless soils
are typically more erodible
than cohesive soils.
