Abstract:Drilled shaft construction often requires the use of drill slurry to maintain borehole stability during excavation
and concreting. Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) specifications require the use of mineral slurry
for all primary structures. Contractors have occasionally requested permission to use polymer additives or
polymer modified mineral slurries, to which no clear response could be provided. This study investigated the
use of polymer additives in mineral slurries to assess their properties and if present specifications were
sufficient for their use.
