April 5, 201411 yr Does anyone in Thailand do shotcrete? Concrete shot from a gun on a hose under pressure and then troweled smooth? It's fast and cheap, and the combination of shooting under pressure and troweling eliminates voids and compacts it and it's strong. You can always put a blue color in the concrete. Pictures There are tons of things you can do with shotcrete and a trowel including building a house. Pictures

Problem is, other than the large construction companies who specialise in tunnel/dam/hydro construction or slope stabilisation there are no small contractors )to my knowledge) with the correct 'wet shotcrete' equipment who undertake small projects. Clearly you have experience in an environment were the QC process of using the right admixtures/additives and shotcrete placement are monitored. From experience poor compaction and spray technique will cause honey combing and voids. Maybe there's a business opportunity here???
