<p>This paper provides, in tabulated and summarized forms, details from a total of 23 North American dams and levees which have been remediated against seepage and the consequences of seepage, by using some form of &ldquo;positive cut-off.&rdquo; The purpose ...

This paper presents the first application of Deep Soil Mixing for Lockington Dam, for cutoff containment to decrease the risk of liquefaction.

B.C. Environment Lands and Parks constructed a groundwater control system using deep cut-off walls as part of their commitment to protection of the environment and their contractual responsibility as former owners of the lands. The construction of the groundwater ...

This paper presents two case studies of soil mixint for the improvement of the properties of soils for pollution problmes. Soil mixing offers a proven, inexpensive method for stabilizing or fixating contaminated soils and sludges

The deep soil mixing method appears to have great promise as a method for creating deep foundations, retaining walls, areal soil improvement and even underwater foundations. A pre job test for liquefaction remediation of Jackson lake dam is presented.

The plans for eliminating the off-site migration of a non-aqueous phase liquid (NAPL) from a refinery into a nearby river included the installation of a High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) curtain wall and an underdrain system. This paper briefly describes the ...

Jet grouting, has been used as a method of performing block stabilization of contaminated soils as well as for the formation of barriers for the control of contaminant migration in the environmental field. The two case studies given herein will illustrate ...
