Foundation solutions of a building on saturated ground, compressible in Brasov city

Abstract

Construction of a building with 5 floors on saturated, very compressible ground, without the possibility of water drainage, required further study and monitoring of its behavior in time. Avoiding differencial settelments required cement injection in a rectangular grid with a side of 1.50 m. It was found that injection consumed 60% more solution than the volume of the borehole, which to a diameter of 30 centimeters, with an average porosity of 35%, highlighted a radius of 46 centimeters influential. This article aims to review the phases of research, execution and monitoring the behavior of the construction.
