Permeation grouting has been developed as one of countermeasures against soil liquefaction during earthquakes. This study
aims at examining the small strain properties and cyclic resistance of jellied sand improved by silicate-based permeation
grouting. In the first part of the present study, the small strain properties and cyclic resistance of jellied sand were examined
based on the measurements of propagation velocities of longitudinal and shear waves travelling through triaxial specimens
and the results from subsequently conducted undrained cyclic triaxial tests. In the second part, straincontrolled small-amplitude
cyclic triaxial tests are conducted using non-contact gap displacement transducers to examine the initial elastic moduli of
silicate gel itself and intact sand as well as jellied sand. The roles of the stiffness at small and large strains of silicate
gel in increasing the undrained cyclic resistance of jellied sand are discussed in detail.
