I came across this video that introduces DAT Instruments, an Italian Company that builds dataloggers for geotechnical construction such as grouting, jet grouting, soil mixing, diaphragm walls and more.
Two recent projects using TerraThane™ geotechnical polyurethane grout were successful in solving seepage problems. TerraThane™ is a two-part geotechnical polymer that when mixed at the injection location, expands to many times its initial volume and […]
