GeneralThe Influence of the Nozzle Tip on Shotcrete Spray Performance

Pierre Siccardi, Achraf Laradh, Simon Bérubé, and Marc Jolin

Shotcrete placement is by definition driven by the particles’ high velocities. The kinetic energy provided by the velocity is how we obtain the desired consolidation of the in-place material upon impact to achieve good performances. Thus, it is important to look at the velocities found
