Design of Grout Curtains

| 2021:720 | Suihan Zhang, Fredrik Johansson
Earlier, the design of grout curtains has mainly been performed based on experience and empirical techniques. In this report, a theory-based design concept for grout curtain under new dams is presented.

In comparison to the traditional empirical method, the theory-based design concept presented in this report is expected to provide the engineers with a better control of the grouting process resulting in improved quality and efficiency of the grouting work.

The design concept also enables an improved estimation of costs and time associated with the construction of the grout curtains.
