Testing shotcrete: the flow table test [Video]
Tests have a vital role to play in the mixing of shotcrete, with on-site sampling and testing essential to ensure the sprayed concrete offers the best possible quality and performance. The two [...]
The School of Mines in the shotcrete cycle: hands-on learning
A School of Mines with an underground site where operators can practice concrete spraying or shotcreting is an essential part of the practice-based nozzleman learning process. Underground [...]
Concrete plants & the shotcrete process
In the making of high-quality projected concrete or shotcrete, it is key to have the right ‘recipe’ setting out the correct proportions in which to dose the different ingredients required. But [...]
Fiber-reinforced shotcrete: Basic primer
In the fight for longevity, cracking is one of the biggest challenges that structural engineers face in a shotcrete project. Anticipating these issues is one of the cornerstones of the industry, [...]
