With the strong growth of shotcrete construction, the concrete construction industry needs on-site inspectors who are knowledgeable about producing high-quality and durable shotcrete. This one-day session from ASA provides guidance on over 40 critical elements of shotcrete applications to properly evaluate the overall quality of shotcrete – valuable information for onsite inspectors, General Contractors, shotcrete contractors and others who hire shotcrete sub-contractors. Topics covered include material selections, equipment, placement techniques, finishing, curing, protection, testing and safety as it relates to the shotcrete process.

Examinees may purchase direct from ACI (www.concrete.org/store): ACI CP-61Pack – Shotcrete Inspector Reference Package. This is the reference resource permitted for the open book exam, optional for those individuals pursuing the ACI Shotcrete Inspector Certification, and also available at the seminar for an additional charge.

Charles Hanskat, PE, FACI, FASCE, ASA Executive and Technical Director, is also an ASA/ACI Examiner for the wet- and dry-mix processes. Charles also actively serves on a wide range of shotcrete-related committees including ACI and ASTM.
Oscar Duckworth is an ACI Certified Nozzleman and currently an ASA/ACI Examiner for the wet- and dry-mix processes. He currently serves as Secretary on ASA’s Executive Committee and Chair of ASA’s Education & Safety Committee.
