A literature search was undertaken to collect information on grouting of soils as related to low temperature environment, 40 F and below. This report reviews existing literature and the state-of-the-art on conventional grouting engineering methods and materials to seek which may be used in thawed or dry, frozen ground and to establish the need of new methods and techniques where conventional grouting methods fail. Forty-five references are cited. (Author)
