A practical overview of shotcrete placement

Organized around the stages and concerns of shotcrete work, this introductory technical guide covers equipment and crew, preconstruction testing, placement, rebound, finishing, curing and protection, and repair of surface defects in new shotcrete. Its subject sits within civil engineering, with particular relevance to dams and reservoirs. The chapter list gives the book a clear operational scope, moving from preparation and application through aftercare and correction of defects. It is a focused resource on placement practices rather than a broad survey of civil engineering.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Civil engineers seeking introductory guidance on shotcrete placement
  • Construction managers and professional engineers involved in shotcrete work
  • Readers interested in civil engineering related to dams and reservoirs
