Patterns of Changes in the Mechanical and Filtration Properties of Semi-Rock Soils Modified by Jet Cementation

When installing underground structures in soil layers with high groundwater filtration rates, special requirements are imposed on the material of anti-filtration curtains. The conditions of application of jet cementation technology for modification of watered fractured rocky soils of low strength in order to form a composite material with the required mechanical and filtration characteristics are considered.The technological parameters of the cementation process have been experimentally and theoretically determined to ensure the necessary radius of propagation of the bonding mixture, and methods of laboratory and field control of the modified zone have been developed. The maximum permissible values of the controlled parameters have been determined.
