Shotcrete
Projected strength for any geometry.
Introduction
Overcome the barriers to traditional forming and pouring methods with our highly adaptive Shotcrete – a time- and cost-efficient solution that extends the life service of any structure and surface.
Description
Ductal® Shotcrete is a wet-mix formulation that can help strengthen, stiffen and protect new and existing structures, improving their performance along the way.
Its steel micro-fiber reinforcement procures its high compressive and flexural strengths from the early-age stages, resulting in the elimination or reduction of traditional mesh or rebar reinforcement, and improved structural capacity overall.
As a real breakthrough in the field of UHPC technology, Ductal® Shotcrete represents a global, competitive solution to meet the various requirements of engineers across all types of projects.

01 - What it is
Description
Thin layers of Ductal® Shotcrete (less than 10 cm) applied in direct projection ensure the durable repair and protection of infrastructures, while reducing on-site intervention times – up to 3 times faster than conventional shotcrete – and extending the structure's service life.
Its wet-mix application process means it can be conveyed and shotcrete with standard mechanized shotcrete equipment and nozzles – even for overhead applications.

02 - Implementation
Description
This recognized and validated innovation allows strengthening and protection of new and existing structures, improving their performances along the way thanks to its embedded material and technology properties such as low permeability, excellent bond strength, and high resistance to abrasion.
Ductal® Shotcrete is a very efficient onsite solution due to the minimum needs for surface preparation, no need of formwork and low rebound rate which shortens the operation time while maintaining the initial geometry that is a critical condition in metallic culverts .
The project’s service life is significantly enhanced, while substantially reducing overall maintenance costs.
