By A.C. Houlsby

Grouting is the process of injecting fluids which set into cracks or voids so as to fill them and thus reduce the flow of water through a foundation, or strengthen it. This text outlines the various types of grout and comparies their suitabilities to cement grout. Most chapters are arranged as a progression from elementary to advanced technology, enabling readers to pursue only as far as their particular interests require. The cross- references and indexing also enable skipping if so desired.
