Shotcrete is mortar or concrete that is splashed at high pressure to desired level . Today, shotcrete has various applications in the construction industry that depending on the target it can
protect the work surface or make concrete cover .
Covering uneven surface of underground holes and providing flat surface is one of the shotcrete
benefits. As soon as bed preparation work a layer of temporary shotcrete used in soil and stone walls that created after drilling.

connection between soil nails ,protecting against erosion and scaling soil in the chest of excavated soil .
Temporary storage, typically, include : metal network installation ,shotcrete layers and soil nails.
Reinforced shotcrete can be used for permanent storage .
Utilizations:
_Temporary and permanent storage of soil and stone wall in excavation.
_Recap bridges foundation and roof .
_Restoration of worn concrete components.
_Recap light walls of build.
_Lining tunnels .
_Increasing the concrete pipe thickness in corrosive and dangerous environments in fire.
_Facing mountains and rocks by covering them with a welded gird and concrete splashing on
them.
Benefits:
_No need for formating.
_The possibility of implementing concrete structure with curved , circular and non-regular shapes.
_Create perfect adhesion between grout and bar or welded gird.
_Gain strength within 250_480 kg per square cm in ordinary conditions apply.
_High-speed performance.
_Economic efficiency.
_Prevent the advance of corrosive agents on steel and concrete components.
