  • Methods and systems for monitoring pressure during jet grouting
    Patent number: 7455479
    Abstract: A method for preventing soil fracture and/or monitoring borehole pressure during jet grouting that may include monitoring borehole pressure at one or more points in a jet grouting borehole while the jet grouting is being performed and determining whether the borehole pressure exceeds a predetermined limit. The method may further include providing notification to a jet grouting operator that there is a high risk of soil fracture if the borehole pressure exceeds the predetermined limit. The predetermined limit may be the estimated fracture pressure of the soil in which the jet grouting is being performed.
