Grouting 2017: Grouting, Deep Mixing, and Diaphragm Walls
Welcome to Grouting 2017 Gateways to a World of Opportunities A Welcome from the Conference Chair On behalf of the conference program committee, I welcome you to one of the most unique and valuable conferences in the world of grouting. This conference continues the series of grouting conferences, held every ten years in New Orleans since 1982 that has always attracted the best and brightest of the grouting world. Geo-technical grouting has always been fertile ground for innovation and these conferences have provided a medium for communication of innovation that has planted the seeds for advancement of grouting technology. Advances in materials, electronics, instrumentation, digital processing and modeling have accelerated the rate of innovation in grouting and related technologies to the point where conferences once every ten years are not enough. Accordingly, the fifth in the series of grouting conferences shortens the interval to 5 years and promises to be the best yet. Grouting 2017 includes outstanding keynote speakers and nearly 130 technical presentations that will bring you up to speed on the latest in grouting, deep mixing, and diaphragm
walls. As always, the exhibit hall will be a central point for networking with other attendees and exhibitors from around the world eager to provide you with the latest information on equipment, materials, and services. There is nowhere else that you can find this concentration of knowledge and information specifically related to grouting, deep mixing, and diaphragm walls all in one place. Hawaii is an accessible and desirable destination. I encourage you to make the time to visit some of the local attractions and absorb the unique tropical beauty of the Hawaiian Islands. With everything from beaches to volcanoes; forests, mountains, and reefs; and activities from surfing and diving to mountain climbing and hula dancing; there is truly something for everyone. Welcome to Hawaii!

The Registration Desk is located on the 2nd Level of the Sheraton Waikiki. Please review daily schedule. The desk will be closed for lunch from 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. every day.
Pre-Conference Short Courses 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.
FULL-DAY SHORT COURSES Compaction Grouting Technology 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m., Puna Room Instructors: James Warner, P.E., Fellow and Life Member ASCE, Individual Consulting Engineer Sam Bandimere, Aff.M.ASCE, Bandimere Grouting Services Michael J. Byle, P.E., D.GE, F.ASCE, National Discipline Lead - Civil/ Geotechnical, Tetra Tech, Inc. Joe Harris, Aff.M.ASCE, Vice President, Hayward Baker, Inc.
Compaction grouting involves a completely different mechanism than most traditional grouting, in that soil is improved by reduction of voids and pore space, rather than the filling thereof. It is also one of the safest, most economical, and easiest grouting technologies to understand and perform effectively, and the only one for which an authoritative published guideline is available, the ASCE Compaction Grouting Consensus Guide, ASCE Standard 53-10. Compaction grouting is widely used to densify soil, oftentimes in connection with structural settlement or liquefaction mitigation, but it has also been successfully employed in a wide variety of other applications, including ground improvement under a variety of structures and major underground conduits; and sinkhole remediation, including remediation of a 400-foot-deep sinkhole in the core of a major dam. The session will start with a chapter-by-chapter explanation of the Consensus Guide, followed by particulars of many case histories depicting actual applications. The details of design, construction, monitoring, and verification in conformance with the ASCE Guide provisions will be amply discussed. With good monitoring (including instrumentation of nearby soil and structures), the particulars of the in-place condition of the soil is disclosed during injection, which not only facilitates good quality assurance, but equally important, provides for immediate adjustment of the injection parameters to assure satisfactory completion. This is a rare opportunity to learn from some of the most experienced grouters alive; 172 years of combined experience with compaction grouting.
Control of Construction-Induced Settlement by Compensation Grouting 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m., Kohala Room Instructors: Clif Kettle, Principal Engineer, Soletanche Bachy Richard Hayman-Joyce, General Manager (South), Keller Geotechnique Colin M. Eddie, P rofessor, UNPS Paul C. Schmall, Ph.D. P.E., D.GE, F.ASCE, Vice President and Chief Engineer, Moretrench
The course will detail: • factors behind the generation of surface settlements by tunneling and deep excavation works, and key aspects of their design and construction to minimize face loss and surface settlement • interactions between the tunneling works and the settlement control measures • baseline information required for the estimation of settlement and resulting structural damage • multi-discipline design for an effective compensation grouting program for settlement control • practical design and physical installation of a compensation grouting system, including the control measures required • analysis of the settlements and ground/structure response to the grouting operations • practical methods and resources required for safe execution of the grouting and tunneling works, including the establishment of exclusion zones and pressure limits around existing infrastructure and live excavation • selection of materials and mix design for compensation grouting • design and installation of structural and geotechnical instrumentation necessary to monitor settlement, slope, and deflection, and to control the grouting works • respective roles and responsibilities of client, engineer, general contractor, and specialist • numerous detailed case histories The course material will be divided into a minimum of four segments. Sufficient time will be allowed at the end of each segment for delegates to participate fully in an interactive question, comments, and answers session. Key documents on all aspects of the course, including detailed case histories and references, will be included in the manual, together with a copy of all the PowerPoint presentations.

Deep mixing methods have been used in the United States since 1986, but often with unsatisfactory or debatable levels of success. However, in recent years, major advances have been made in the areas to be reviewed, as a result of a number of major projects, associated technological developments, and enhanced levels of QA/QC and Verification. This course will describe these advances in a number of focused segments, liberally illustrated with case histories. Additional ticket purchase required.

HALF-DAY AFTERNOON SHORT COURSE Jet Grouting: Technology, New Improvement, Quality Control and Verification 1:00 – 5:00 p.m., Honolulu Room Instructors: Paolo Gazzarrini, P.Eng, M.ASCE, Consulting Engineer, Sea to Sky Geotech Inc. Kenneth B. Ivanetich, P.E., M.ASCE, Area Manager, Hayward Baker, Inc.
Following the development of jet grouting in Japan in the early ‘70s, it was introduced in the late 70’s in Europe (initially in Italy) where the soil conditions were optimal for its application. Examples of jet grouting projects carried out in the United States date back to the early 1980s. After more than 40 years, this technology has evolved dramatically primarily through the geotechnical community’s innovative design and application of this versatile technique. This in turn has driven the improvement of the tooling and equipment which has resulted in further evolution. The course will cover the basic aspects of jet grouting. It will begin with the theory and evolution of the technology and will then cover the materials, equipment, and many of the various applications of the technique, keeping in mind the QA/QC required. Special emphasis will be placed on the important and risky projects carried out with this flexible soil improvement technique that helped advance it to become commonplace in the geotechnical construction industry. Additionally, spoil/reflow management and the so called “shadowing effect” will be discussed and analyzed. Additional ticket purchase required. Registration Fee: Member/Non-Member | EB: $195, ADV: $215, ONS: $265 Student | EB: $100, ADV: $150, ONS: $200 4 PDHs
