Description

506R-16: Guide to Shotcrete

This guide provides information on materials and properties of both dry-mix and wet-mix shotcrete. Most facets of the shotcrete process are covered, including application procedures, equipment requirements, and responsibilities of the shotcrete crew. Other aspects, such as preconstruction trials, craftsman qualification tests, materials tests, finished shotcrete acceptance tests, and equipment, are also discussed.

506.2-13: Specification for Shotcrete (Reapproved 2018)

This specification contains the construction requirements for the application of shotcrete. Both wet- and dry-mixture shotcrete are addressed, as well as fiber-reinforced shotcrete. The minimum standard for materials, properties, testing, and application are covered.
