The projected concrete is a mortar or concrete projected pneumatically or sprayed by a nozzle with high speed on the prepared surface. The whole system is also known as spraycrete. Concrete is not a real product that you can buy. It can not be touched or held in your hand. The projected concrete is the process of placing the concrete to achieve high strengths and low permeability.
ADVANTAGES OF SHOTCRETE:
It is very useful and has great advantages over conventional concrete in a new variety of construction and repair work.
1. Excellent bonding in nature makes the concrete layers very strong.
2. It is more economical than conventional concrete and requires less formwork.
3. Concrete can be applied by a nozzle from a safe distance.
DISADVANTAGES OF SHOTCRETE:
1. The cost of production is very high.
2. Dust problems.
3. So much loss of concrete.
