SHOTCRETE TECHNOLOGY
What is shotcrete?
providing quality products and services to the
industry since 1979
This innovative technology of shotcrete was
introduced to make the work easier and immediate
mortar or high performance concrete conveyed
through a hose and pneumatically projected at high
velocity onto a backing surface
An acceptable
way of placing
cementitious material
in a variety of
applications.

SHOTCRETE, HIGH PERFORMANCE
PRODUCT CONSISTING OF …
aggregates waterCement admixture
non-alkaline accelerator
+ + +
was invented in the early 1900s by American
taxidermist Carl Akeley.
used to fill plaster models of animals.
In 1911, he was granted a patent.
Until the 1950’s, the wet-mix process was devised,
only the dry-mix process was used.
Shotcrete is today an all-inclusive term that
describes spraying concrete or mortar with either a
dry or wet mix process.
Gunite is a trademarked name that is incorrectly
used to describe the dry-mix shotcrete process
Shotcrete emerged as the only acceptable industry
term to correctly describe "pneumatically applied
concrete“.
Sprayed concrete is reinforced by conventional
steel rods, steel mesh, and/or fibers.
Fiber reinforcement (steel or synthetic) is also
used for stabilization in applications such as
slopes or tunneling.
Shotcrete
conventional concrete is first placed and then
compacted in the second operation.
shotcrete undergoes placement and compaction at
the same time.
Shotcrete is more dense, homogeneous, strong, and
waterproof .
It can be impacted onto any type or shape of
surface, including vertical or overhead areas
1. Dry process 2. Wet process
Dry process:
Step1: Pre blended, dry or semi-dampened
materials are placed into shotcrete equipment and
metered into a hose.
Step2: Compressed air conveys materials at high
velocity to the nozzle where the water is added.
Step3: Then the material is consolidated on
receiving surface by high impact velocity.
Advantages of Dry process:
Easy start up, shutdown and clean up.
Control of materials is on site.
Nozzle man can be up to 1000ft
horizontally or 500ft vertically from the
gun.
Wet process:
Step1: All ingredients, including water, are
thoroughly mixed and introduced into the shotcrete
equipment.
Step 2: Wet material is pumped to the nozzle
where compressed air is introduced
Step 3: Mostly wet-process shotcreting is done
with premixed mortar or small aggregate concrete.
Advantages of Wet process:
Little or no formwork is required.
Cost effective method for placing concrete.
Ideal for irregular surface applications
Allows for easier material handling in areas with
difficult access

Rehabilitation of subway tunnels
construction of domed roofs.
Highway culvert repair and arch culvert
The use of Shotcrete to build new concrete structures
as well as to restore and repair existing structures is well
known and documented and it is perhaps the most
diverse method available for concrete construction. The
use of this innovative technology is increasing day by
day and procedures for its proper performance are well
developed and high quality work is regularly obtained.
