Prediction of cement grout penetration by geostatistical method

This paper presents a stochastically approach for validating the cement grouting in soil which is a crucial matter for stabilization in soil structures, by geostatistics method. In this way a real site is considered and four boreholes are drilled in there and the soil parameters are determined. After that the cement grout is penetrated in the boreholes and the density of the soil is measured by getting the sample from grouting distance. After that the traveled distance of grouting is determining by geostatistical methods. Comparison of the results show a close distance for two methods. Therefore, the geostatistical method can be used for predicting the traveled distance of grout instead of field test.
