What Is a Jet Pipe?
Sprayed concrete is a construction method of pouring fine stone concrete with a pressure spray gun. Commonly used for lining tunnels, linings of thin-walled structures such as walls, ceilings, or other structures, and protective layers of steel structures. Shotcrete is a method in which pre-mixed cement, sand, stones, water and a certain amount of admixtures are loaded into a sprayer, which is sent to a spray head and mixed with an accelerator using high-pressure air. Or the surface of concrete.
