Bentonite
Applications |
 CONSTRUCTION
& CIVIL ENGINEERING :-
Our Bentonite mud is filled in shaft for boring large
diameter piles in poor ground conditions. The Bentonite forms an
impermeable ‘filter cake’ around the shaft annulus and base, which
prevents loss of fluid into the ground. This allows the relatively
dense Bentonite mud level in the pile to be maintained at a higher
level than the groundwater level, which stabilizes the shaft.
Bentonite civil engineering applications are in foundations, in
horizontal directional drilling, pipe jacking, diaphragm walls and
in tunneling.
