Time-Dependent Strength Behavior of Soil-Bentonite Slurry Wall Backfill
Soil-bentonite (SB) slurry trench cutoff walls have been used for over 30 years as subsurface vertical barriers to control ground water flow and contaminant transport.
Category: Slurry Walls
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.
