To address water film formation resulting from negative pressure penetration during construction, certain suction bucket jacket foundation projects implement grouting techniques to ensure adequate bearing capacity. This study conducted a large-scale suction bucket foundation grouting model experiment to examine grout flow characteristics and specific phenomena under various grouting pipeline configurations. Comparative analyses of grouting efficiency and quality across different pipeline layouts identified critical influencing factors and their impact on grouting performance. The results demonstrate that the number of grout outlets should be maintained within an optimal range:insufficient outlets enhance the indentation effect and decrease fill efficiency, while excessive outlets necessitate precise spacing for effective distribution. Additionally, grout outlets should be uniformly arranged to reduce segregation and enhance overall grouting quality. This study's findings provide a scientific foundation for optimizing grouting design in suction bucket jacket foundations, with substantial implications for engineering applications.展开更多
