Popis: In response to the environmental pollution caused by transportation and accumulation of large-scale shield muck, the on-site reutilization of shield muck is an effective approach. This study explored the feasibility of silty clay muck to prepare muck grout. Through orthogonal experiments, the effects of cement, fly ash, shield muck, admixture, and the water–solid ratio on the fresh properties and mechanical properties of muck grout were studied. The performance prediction model was established Additionally, the intrinsic relationships between the compressive strength and microstructure of shield muck grouting materials were explored through multi-technology microstructural characterization. The results indicate that the content of muck and the water–solid ratio have a greater significant influence on the bleeding ratio, flowability, setting time, and volume shrinkage rate of muck grout compared to other factors. Cement has a greater significant influence on the compressive strength of muck grout than other factors. An optimal mix proportion (12% for cement, 18% for fly ash, 50% for muck, 0.465 for water–solid ratio, 19.5% for river sand, and 0.5% for bentonite) can produce grouting materials that meet performance requirements. The filling effect of cementitious substances and the particle agglomeration effect reduce the internal pores of grouting materials, improving their internal structure and significantly enhancing their compressive strength. Utilizing shield muck as a raw material for shield synchronous grouting is feasible.
