Enriched with real-world insights from the author, the Practical Handbook of Grouting features the latest information on:
Cementitious and noncementitious grouts, including new admixtures and polymers
Special construction requirements, including grouting inside structures, underground spaces, in extreme environments, and for emergency response support
Grouting equipment, including pumps, mixers, agitators, and delivery and monitoring systems
Pump mechanics, including the advantages and limitations of all pump types
"The Games Contractors Play," including marketing efforts, proposal trickery, on-the-job issues, and defending bad work
