A Retrospective: The American Shotcrete Association
The ASA was and is largely a collective effort. I am very proud of our organization and of all that we have achieved in roughly a 25-year span of time.
An Intersection of Art and Engineering in Shotcrete
Rosado-Seijo and Kwade’s sculptures stand as a testament to the power of collaboration between artists and shotcrete specialists, exemplifying the possibilities that arise when creative artistic vision meets shotcrete’s technical capability.
The Diversity of Shotcrete
It is truly paramount to recognize the diversity of solutions available because of the versatility that shotcrete offers. Shotcrete placement provided more efficient, sustainable and durable concrete solutions in these two cases than could have been achieved with a form-and-pour approach.
Relieving Water Pressure on Shotcrete Lining by Integrating a Drainage Mesh
Underground construction, especially a tunnel, is one of the most complex challenges in the field of civil engineering. Dolenco Drain is an innovative solution which addresses many of the difficulties with controlling or eliminating water pressure in an easy, safe, long-term, and cost-effective manner.
Early Age Strength Testing for Shotcrete: 2024
For improved safety in tunneling and mining projects that use shotcrete for ground support, early shotcrete strength should be evaluated by testing. Based on their range of effectiveness, two procedures stand out: The new Hilti BX 3-SCT stud driving method and the beam end tester.
Geohazard Mitigation: Why Shotcrete?
To improve safety and mitigate the risks of rockfall events along I-65 in Giles County, TN, GeoStabilization partnered with the Tennessee Department of Transportation and a local construction company.
Rapid Strength Gain Dry-Mix Shotcrete: A Unique Solution for Highly Complex Projects
The construction industry must embrace new technologies and innovations to address today’s challenges. With its unique features, shotcrete stands out as a placement solution, meeting the most stringent project standards and offering unmatched benefits compared to traditional form-and-pour concrete.
Pre-Job Safety Checks
A well-planned job with a focus on safety will bring profit to your company, and your customers will appreciate a job done on-time and on-budget. Spending the proper time every day pre-planning and ensuring the job is safe will benefit all.
