Jet Grouting
Advantages to the jet grouting method include: higher compressive soil strengths in comparison with other soil
improvement methods; more uniform soil treatment; capability to improve isolated soil areas; and definitive
quantity and scheduling.
Key principals of Layne GeoConstruction have been engaged in jet grouting production and technology since its origins
in Italy. Many jet grouting techniques and specialized equipment improvements that have become industry standards were
conceived and advanced by these individuals – several during their associations with predecessor companies of Layne
Christensen.
