The method of pneumatically placing concrete, or shotcrete, can offer an alternative to certain applications of traditionally cast concrete to save time and money. Shotcrete’s versatility lends itself to all types of concrete applications both below, on and above grade. Highways, bridges, channels, reservoirs, dams, buildings, parking structures and retrofit projects have all successfully utilized the shotcrete method. Some of the advantages of utilizing the shotcrete method are forming and labor savings, speed of new construction and the ability to access hard-to-reach areas.
