How does shotcrete save you time?

 

Traditional cast in place concrete methods require the construction of extensive framing in which to pour the concrete mixture.

 

Shotcrete utilizes a specialized mixture of concrete and aggregate particular to the structural integrity of the project which is then shot at high velocity against blind walls requiring minimal forming against only one surface saving both manpower and time.

 

How does shotcrete save you money?

 

Shotcrete saves both time in terms of labour and forming input required, as well as materials due to decreased forming requirements. Shotcrete often provides significant time savings to your overall construction schedule helping you get the job done quicker!
