Grouting in Support of Underground Nuclear Testing,
Abstract
The development and the placement of grouts in support of underground nuclear experiments is described. Support consists of consultation services for grouting programs; development of grout mixtures to meet experimental requirements, i.e., stemming of nuclear devices in deep drilled holes; coupling to formations associated instrumentation emplaced in deep holes drilled in various rock and alluvium formations; as massive plugs in shafts and tunnels; as shock-mitigation material behind tunnel liners, etc. Problems experienced and resolution of such problems are described.
