    Typical Grout Mix (cubic yard proportions)

    752 lbs cement 225 lbs fly ash 2400 lbs sand 3 lbs grout aid W/C ratio: 0.45 to .50 Compressive strength: 4,000 psi (28 day)

    The Deep Foundations Institutes Augered Cast-in-Place Pile Short Course Houston 2012

    Compressive strengths are typically referenced to 2 X 2 cubes. Compressive strength tests on cylindrical (L=2D) specimens will produce about 0.85 of those on cubes (see ASTM C780-06, p482)

    Compressive strengths in the range of 3000 psi to 5000 psi are common. Maximum available compressive strength is dependent upon available materials and varies regionally. Compressive strengths of 9000 psi have been used (South Florida)

    Other Roles of Grout in APG Piles

    The injection of grout under pressure is considered to improve the soil in the pile area.

    Grout acts to stabilize the hole until it hardens and becomes a pile.

    The fresh grout column must be capable of accepting reinforcing steel.

    In order to properly serve these purposes, the grout must be in a fluid state.

    (DFI manual States a Flow Cone Rate of 10 to 25 seconds through a opening in the Flow Cone)

    Note 1: The length and configuration of the reinforcing steel cage can greatly impact the successful insertion of pile reinforcement into the grout. The addition of steel surface area (closely spaced circular ties with seismic hooks for example) has a significant impact on deep placement.

    Note 2: High static pressures in the fresh grout column forces fluid from the grout into permeable soils, making steel placement difficult. At the bottom of a 50 column of fresh grout, the pressure is about 3.6 tons per square foot.

    Local codes and pile loads dictate pile reinforcement design, but consideration must be made as to the constructability of installing massive post-set pile reinforcement elements. Consult a piling professional to discuss constructability issues and alternatives such as spiral cages, pipes, etc.
