Synopsis

Grouts are becoming increasingly recognised as versatile construction materials, with widespread applications in areas where traditional methods of construction prove to be too cumbersome or costly. They are flexible in the sense that the properties of a grout for a particular application can be tailored specifically to satisfy ground conditions, curing times and other critical parameters. The authors consider the properties of grouts, how they may be formulated for different purposes, and application areas where the advantages of grouts have been assessed and ratified. Case studies illustrate benefits, problems and future potential.
