Shotcrete
Shotcrete is a process where concrete is projected or “shot” under pressure using a feeder gun onto a surface to form structural shapes including walls, floors, and roofs. The surface can be any surface that concrete can be projected onto. The surface can be smoothed or stamped while the concrete is still wet.
Architects, engineers, developers, and contractors are under ever-growing pressure to use more efficient methods in construction. Shotcrete construction has many unique characteristics that substantially increase the sustainability aspects of both new construction and repair. Shotcrete enables key savings in labor, materials, material handling and construction time, as well as providing increased flexibility and efficiency in shapes and thicknesses.
