Where We Came From and Where We Are Going
By Frank Townsend, President
Carl Akeley first developed the shotcrete process in 1907. The industry has evolved with over a century of technological advancements from pumps to nozzles, to admixtures, to new Type 1L cement, to remotely manipulated equipment, to acceptance in the larger infrastructure world. Many laid the groundwork for the growth of this industry: Larry Totten and Tony Federico out West; Lars Balck and Charles Hanskat from CROM; George Yoggy, Patrick Bridger, and “Mr. Pool” Bill Drakeley in the Northeast; and the Alabama dynasty of Curt White, Bill Snow, Tony McDougal, and Tom Pirkle. It is now up to us to expand it further.
