Abstract
In the present study, zeolite was used to partially replace ordinary Portland cement at 10, 20, 40 and 60% by weight. Water to cementitious material ratio (w/c) was taken as 1 and 5 for preparing the grout. The results indicate that apparent viscosity, plastic viscosity and yield stress remains low up to limiting injection time and thereafter it increases rapidly reaching to gel time. For w/c 1 at 10% zeolite replacement minimum viscosity is observed and for w/c 5 at 40% zeolite replacement minimum viscosity is observed.
