Abstract This paper presents an accident caused by unopened pre-embedded grouting pipes of working piles at a site of Zhejiang Province,and then proposes construction measures of post-grouting conducted using two pre-embedded grouting piles,a borehole drilled in pile shaft and a hole embedded in soil around pile. The variation of grouting pressure and grouting amount with time during different schemes of post-grouting was also discussed. In the scheme of post-grouting conducted using a borehole drilled in pile shaft,rubber packer can be used to avoid cement sully leakage,while rubber packer and swelling water-stopper can be adopted to prevent cement sully leakage,as well as intermittent grouting technique being employed,in the scheme of post-grouting conducted with a borehole embedded in soil around pile.
