The thickness of slurry walls can range between 50 and 120 cm and the depth varies between 15 and 60 m.
Applications:
Slurry walls are generally used to seal landfills, dams or industrial installations that can pollute underground water.
Slurry walls are built in the identical manner as the diaphragm walls.
The initial stage consists in the excavation of a trench. In the majority cases the excavation penetrates about 1 - 2 m into a low permeability soil, such as clay, to give water tightness under the wall.
SLURRY WALLS
Slurry
walls give a non- structural barrier against water access, also called cut- off
wall and they are executed from a blend of bentonite and cement.
