Welcome to Shotcrete Africa

These services serve a wide range of specialised applications, and we take a number of approaches to the process of each job, to ensure that we find the one that best suits your specific site conditions.

What is Shotcrete?

Shotcrete is not a material, but rather a process of placing concrete that results in a product with enhanced strength, reduced permeability and improved durability over standard pumped concrete

Shotcrete is well suited to retaining walls, concrete repair and rehabilitation, silo repairs and new builds, architectural construction where free form shapes require complicated formwork and the harsh conditions of the mining industry. In fact anywhere concrete needs to be placed in hard to reach areas and where program acceleration is advantageous.

What is Shotcrete used for?

The shotcrete process works ideally for a range of applications, including but not limited to:

• Structural concrete
• Retaining Walls
• Canals
• Concrete repair
• Tunnels
• Water features, reservoirs, sea walls and pools
• Silos – repair and new builds
• Skate parks
• Piers
• Lateral support

The Benefits of Using the Shotcrete Process

• Shotcrete results in concrete that is less porous, stronger and more durable than like for like concrete placed through normal methods
• The Shotcrete process ensures an increased bond strength between old and new concrete
• Shotcrete reduces construction time and costs significantly
• Half the formwork is used
• Pumping distances of over 200m can be achieved with our high pressure best of breed REED shotcrete equipment
