Resumen
This paper presents an experimental investigation on chemical grouting in a permeated fracture replica considering its roughness. Tests of grouting with flowing water in the fracture replica were carried out under different Bardon?s standard roughness profiles. The interactions between influential factors were considered and an experimental platform for grouting in rough fractures with flowing water was established. The effect of chemical grouting in fractures with flowing water was investigated using orthogonal experiment. The joint roughness coefficient (JRC), the initial water flow rate, the gel time, and the fracture opening were selected as factors in the orthogonal experiment. The results show that there is a positive correlation between the water plugging rate and JRC, and negative correlations between the water plugging rate and the initial water flow rate, gel time, and fracture opening. The change curve of the water flow rate is divided into three categories: Single platform decreasing type, double platform decreasing type, and multi-peak fluctuating type. The curve of seepage pressure contains three categories: Single peak type, multi-peak type and platform type. The results provide a reference for grouting in rock fractures.
