A case study of the improvement of an old building’s shallow foundation resting on sandy clay soil using cement slurry grouting technique

The need to rebuild and upgrade old structures has grown in recent years, particularly large urban areas. These renovation activities frequently affect the structural load of building, eventually increasing loads acting on foundation. This paper illustrates a case study which cement grouting method was used improve load-carrying capability an structure's influence various key variables method, such as diameter, length, angle inclination mortar pile, also assessed using finite element (FE) Plaxis 2D. Finally, optimum parameters for strengthening building were chosen based FE analysis results improvement bearing capacity foundation slurry method.
