Strength and Permeability of a Deep Soil Bentonite Slurry Wall
In 2006, a Soil Bentonite (SB) slurry wall was constructed at a brownfield redevelopment of a former steel mill site in Mayfield, NSW Australia. At
Slurry walls are non-structural groundwater cut-off walls installed for civil and environmental purposes, utilizing a liquid slurry to stabilize the trench’s sidewalls.
