SAK`s Shotcreting Process Has Many Applications. The shotcreting process involves using air pressure to spray wet or dry concrete at a velocity sufficient to make the sprayed material adhere to targeted surfaces. Because shotcrete adheres well to varying types of surfaces, SAK frequently uses it in tunnel construction and pipe installation, sewer rehabilitation and repair, soil stabilization, and temporary or permanent excavation support. Another key use for shotcrete is in the repair of the aging culverts that are common throughout many parts of the U.S. Many culverts are constructed from galvanized steel that rusts and deteriorates with time. Unattended, these culverts may fail and collapse, with potentially devastating consequences to the community. By appropriately applying shotcrete to a deteriorated culvert, SAK can increase its dependability and strength, with minimal restrictions to flow volumes.
