PRODUCTS
Innovative Shotlining provides high-quality shotcrete products and equipment, including Shotlining Mix, Fire Stop Mix, and advanced application tools like the Centrifugal Spray Caster and Robotic Arm.
Our innovative application tools and precisely mixed shotcrete blends are made to ensure the highest levels of longevity, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. Our products provide excellent infrastructure protection and fireproofing solutions.
Special Shotcrete Blends:
1. FireStop
An advanced fireproofing solution, our FireStop shotcrete blend is designed to offer exceptional protection against fire threats. This cementitious, sprayable substance forms a strong, fire-resistant barrier by adhering to materials like steel, concrete, and wood with ease.
Enhanced with volcanic ash, FireStop offers long-lasting resilience and surpasses international fireproofing standards, protecting your infrastructure from potentially damaging fires and excessive temperatures.
2. Our Shotlining
Our proprietary shotcrete material is a specialized blend of cement, sand, and pozzolanic admixtures designed for superior pumpability, adhesion, and durability. The unique high-slump mix can be easily sprayed using our advanced application equipment.
Proprietary mix developed by our partner Shotcrete technologies, is prepared at a plant in southern California, to provide fast turnaround, less storage requirements, and optimal product quality control.
Available in 1000lb bags and 3000lb pallets.
Proprietary Equipment to apply the Blends above:
1. Centrifugal Spray caster:
The precision-engineered Centrifugal Spray Caster is a tool that we use to apply our shotcrete mixtures evenly and effectively. Working on large-scale projects or intricate architectural details, this equipment guarantees a uniform and flawless finish while reducing waste and improving project efficiency. For contractors who need high-quality work done quickly, this is the ideal tool.
Additionally designed to operate in a variety of environments, the centrifugal spray caster produces reliable results even under demanding circumstances. The user-friendly interface enables fast modifications, making it adaptable to various project requirements while preserving shotcrete applications of the highest quality.
2. Robotic Arm:
Our shotcrete application’s robotic arm represents the leading edge of construction technology. It can apply shotcrete in locations that are challenging to access with conventional methods because of its sophisticated automation and precise controls. In addition to improving efficiency and safety, this technology guarantees a consistently high standard of work, which minimizes the need for rework and saves time on complex projects.
Due to its adaptability, the Robotic Arm can work on projects of any size and can easily accommodate difficult angles and small areas. Its cutting-edge software integration guarantees accurate shotcrete application while reducing waste and maintaining the highest level of quality.
Our Shotlining
Job completed for Colorado DOT in 2004. 20 years later, no cracks!
The reduced need for formwork and the ability to work in difficult-to-reach areas reduces labor and equipment costs by over 50%.
In summary, shotcrete has evolved from a simple repair method to a versatile and widely used construction technology, offering numerous advantages in terms of speed, durability, and economics.
Shotlining accelerates project schedules significantly, reducing the time required for traditional invasive pipe replacement.
It provides higher compressive strength, lower permeability, and improved durability compared to conventional concrete. No more short term fractures and leaks, with a design life of up to 75 years.
Shotlining can be applied to vertical, overhead, and irregular surfaces, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
Product Roadmap 2024
Fire Stop” Shotcrete is a sprayable, cementitious, inorganic fireproofing material with excellent adhesion to surfaces like concrete, steel, and wood. It releases no toxic fumes during application or fire. Enhanced with volcanic ash, “Fire Stop” outlasts ordinary concrete in quality and lifespan. This material meets or exceeds most international specifications for passive fireproofing in public transportation tunnels, infrastructure, and mines to control “hot” areas. In-house tests on 1/2” to 3/4” samples at 2400°F for 4 hours showed the back side never exceeded 800°F.
Previously challenging and not cost-effective, our new trailer, in the future, will enable us to efficiently handle short run projects of 100 feet or less. This innovation minimizes setup time and costs while reducing on-site labor.
The integration of computer vision and artificial intelligence technologies promises to revolutionize shotlining operations. These cutting-edge solutions will enable significant labor cost reductions of over 50% while providing exceptional real-time quality control validation
