All interested parties are invited to help develop standards for ASTM International’s subcommittee on grouting, part of the committee on soil and rock ( D18 ). The purpose of the grouting subcommittee ( D18.16 ) is to promote grouting practices by developing specifications and test methods related to the characterization of properties and behavior of chemical and particulate grouts, as well as…, in situ, cohesion test, and water pressure tests, among others. These tests are regularly performed at construction sites, but without the underpinning of unified testing methods for them. “Beyond these applications, there is major crossover and common interest between grouting and the oil industry, whether for drilling, formation damage, or wellbore stability,” says Germaine.

A new ASTM International standard will help test organophilic clay, a product that is increasingly used to help remove oil and other materials as part of environmental remediation projects involving groundwater, soil, and sediment. Potentially harmful substances stick to the clay’s surface, helping filter them out. “This new standard can be used as an index test for the evaluation of the oil…, Media Inquiries:, Dan Bergels, tel +1.610.832.9602; dbergels@astm.org, Committee Contact:, Katerina Koperna, tel +1.610.832.9728; kkoperna@astm.org
