BC Building Envelope Council – Chemical Grouting Solutions for Below-Grade Structures and Deep Foundations
This session will focus on curtain wall grouting for below-grade parkades and permeation grouting for shoring applications. DE NEEF chemical grout systems can form both horizontal and vertical barriers to groundwater movement, helping to:
1. Create curtain wall waterproofing barriers to replace failed systems and stop active leaks through cracks and poorly consolidated shotcrete walls in underground parkades
2. Create curtain wall waterproofing barriers behind shoring systems
3. Improve soil cohesion and overall ground stability
4. Reduce permeability and groundwater flow within the strata
5. Support excavation activities while minimizing off-site settlement
These methods help achieve drier excavation conditions, improve construction productivity and predictability, and remediate active leaks in below-grade structures. A live demonstration (If time permits) will illustrate how different chemical grouts behave in practice.
