Title: Development of Centrifuge Tools for Placing Grout and Grouted Helical Piers In-Flight (NEES-2006-0149)

Year Of Curation: 2010

Description: This exploratory project focuses on developing centrifuge tools and instruments for allowing in-flight grout placement. An additional focus of the work is to develop methods for installing grouted helical piers in-flight. Grouted helical piers are believed to be a promising foundation rehabilitation method.
