Note: A newer version of this document exists. This document was replaced by 351.1R-12.

This report provides an overview of current practices of grouting for support of equipment and machinery. Materials and installation methods are described for hydraulic cement and epoxy grouts used as the load-transfer material between equipment bases and their foundations. Characteristics of placed material, test methods for forecasting long-term performance, qualification of grout materials, foundation design and detailing considerations, and installation procedures are described. A listing of standard test methods and specifications is also included.
