1 Shotcrete Training for Sprayed Concrete Application 1

2 ontent - Introduction - Production chain of sprayed concrete - Scheme for education - Experiences of training - Conclusion 2

3 Introduction Construction material of highest complexity Requirements for application Requirements for hardened concrete 3

4 Preliminary support with bolts and mesh 4

5 inal Lining with Sprayed Concrete 5

6 Introduction Construction material of highest complexity Requirements for application Requirements for hardened concrete Sprayed concrete is a construction material which is produced on site within a few seconds Introducing air for transport Adding accelerator Final distribution of concrete Covering reinforcement 6

7 Production unit of sprayed concrete 7

8 Detail of production unit (nozzle) Concrete Air Accelerator 8

9 Production chain of sprayed concrete Mix design Production and quality control of fresh concrete Application of sprayed concrete Curing of sprayed concrete and confirmation of concrete properties 9

10 tilisation for Sprayed Concrete Rock support Sealing (?) Final lining Repair / Maintenance 10

23 Flow table test Mix could not be pumped 23

24 Flow table test Mix could be pumped without any problems 24

25 ims of Sprayed Concrete Application Less rebound No back-fall Homogenous concrete Good compaction Reinforcement fully covered Early strength will be achieved Final strength will be achieved 25

26 uality of Sprayed Concrete is influenced by: Preparation of subsurface Distance nozzle-wall Angel nozzle-wall Air consumption Type and dosage of accelerator Thickness of layers 26

27 pplication of Sprayed Concrete 27

28 apacity of Concrete Application Capability of pump Movability of spraying boom Size of tunnel 28

29 Back fall of concrete! What are the reasons? 29
