Gunitings and shotcrete

Gunite and shotcrete are two trade terms for different types of sprayed concrete. Sprayed concrete was developed as a construction solution for tunnels, underground structures, slope stabilization, structural repairs, and swimming pools.

Guniting is a process used in construction for various other rehabilitation purposes like retaining walls, water retaining structures and concrete repair works.

The process involves a mortar or small-aggregate concrete that is sprayed with air power onto surfaces at a high velocity.

The force of the concrete spray consolidates and compacts the material and ensures that it adheres to the host surface.
