4. Grouting
Grouting
• Primary grouting will be done continuously during
excavation through 4 grout slots at controlled
pressure (Minimally 2 grout slots)
• Triple wire brushes seal will prevent the grout from
leaking into the tail seal
• Secondary grouting to prove that the annulus is full
will be carried out within about 10 rings away from the
build area
