Examines the evolution and implementation of sprayed concrete technology. The text highlights significant advancements in material science, specifically focusing on the benefits of alkali-free accelerators, silica fume, and fiber reinforcement to enhance structural durability and strength. Research papers within the volume investigate the efficiency of powdered air-entraining admixtures and the use of fly ash to reduce rebound and minimize the risk of alkali-silica reactions. Beyond chemical compositions, the sources emphasize practical applications in tunneling and repair, advocating for the wet-mix process to improve operator safety and environmental standards. Ultimately, the collection serves as a comprehensive guide for achieving high-performance shotcrete through modern equipment, specialized admixtures, and rigorous quality control.
