The behaviour and the actual condition of the strata are variables difficult to define in detail during the design phase. Moreover, during the construction phase of underground works, a disturbance of the natural equilibrium occurs, that may lead to fracturing, ground decompression and water circulation. As a result, the complexity of the ground-construction system increases, and problems are often encountered during the construction and operation phase of the infrastructure. In this field, resins can offer positive results, associated with fast reaction, low viscosity, and adaptable chemistry and may be an effective response to these difficult to solve problems. This paper describes in brief the application of PU resins and the favourable result obtained in the Ilarion Dam spillway No1 tunnel, in Greece.
