There are several different driving forces behind the development of today’s modern robotic equipment. A need for efficiency, safety and economy. Most robotic units will help in this respect, by allowing substantially higher shotcrete output and even set-up ...

<p>Given the high deformability requirements of shotcrete in repair, rehabilitation, slope stabilization, ground support, and other applications, the use of fibers in shotcrete is growing. Growing also are challenges surrounding the use of fibers in shotcrete ...

Silica fume was first used in shotcrete in Norway in the nineteen seventies. In the early nineteen eighties the use of silica fume developed in North America, first in Western Canada and then in the United States. Silica fume has been added to both wet-mix ...
