Fort N° 1, Lauzon, Quebec, Canada
Résumé en anglais
In 1977, the Quebec Regional Division of Parks Canada undertook restoration work on a former British fort, N° 1 at Lauzon near Quebec. A part of the work of stabilizing the brick vaults of the casemates and caponiers involved pressure grouting using epoxy resins. The paper explains the reasons for the choice of this technique and gives advice on the preparation of the surfaces, the use of the resins and subsequent quality inspection.
