The FHWA is partnering with a virtual who’s-who of geotechnical engineers and contractors specializing in drilled shafts and grouting to perform a research project on post-grouting (aka base-grouting or tip-grouting) of drilled shafts. More details can be found at Dan Brown and Associates Blog (Dan Brown is one of the three Co-Principal Investigators). The results of the study are expected to be released sometime in 2014.
