Abstract
This study aims to develop a bio-grouting material in a powder form like cement. Sand gel samples were produced with the ratio of sodium silicate No.3 to water (50 : 50, 35 : 65, 20 : 80), and the ratio of cement to bio-grouting material (100 : 0, 90 : 10, 70 : 30) to select a mixing ratio of bio-grouting, respectively, and then analyzed the geltime over time. The uniaxial compressive strength was evaluated to select and suggest a mixing ratio optimized for construction conditions. The indoor test reveals that preferred geltime and uniaxial compressive strength is obtained in 35 : 65 with respect to the ratio of sodium silicate No.3 to water, and 90 : 10 with respect to the ratio of cement to bio-grouting material to demonstrate best optimal mixing ratios.
