Stronger piles, lower foundation cost
Pile base grouting is a modern method of strengthening the soil beneath a pile. A mixture of cement, chemicals and water is injected at high pressure under the pile tip. Freehold Construction & Development introduced, developed and applied this technology in Bangladesh, where it has been reported to double pile capacity and cut foundation cost by 20 to 40 percent.
How it works
- Pipe placed inside the pile before it is cast
- Grout mixed from cement and chemical additives in set proportions after the pile is complete
- Injected under pressure through the pipe into the soil beneath the pile, hardening soft mud and loose soil
Benefits
Where it applies
Pile foundations of buildings and structures, particularly bored piles. The technique cannot be applied after piling is finished, so it must be assessed at the planning stage. Share your soil test report with us and we will review whether it suits your project.
