• Volume 2: Drilled and Grouted Micropiles: State of Practice Review
• Volume 3: Drilled and Grouted Micropiles: State of Practice Review
• Volume 4: Drilled and Grouted Micropiles: State of Practice Review

From 1997 onwards, research has been conducted on a similar state of practice study dealing with deep mixing. The output has been:

Research is ongoing.
