Batimix Concrete 560

Shotcrete for dry process applications - General use

Description

BATIMIX Concrete 560 is a pre-blended dry shotcrete mixture designed for general use. It is made from Portland cement type I, selected additives, and carefully-graded fine and coarse aggregates.

The dry material is introduced in the shotcrete delivery machine. Compressed air is used to convey the dry material at high-velocity through a hose with water added. It impacts the receiving surface at high velocity resulting in a well-compacted product that is easy to place and consolidate.

Main Purpose

BATIMIX Concrete 560 is a structural material. It is used to repair and rehabilitate horizontal, vertical, and overhead surfaces. Structures include bridges, garages, beams, slabs, and others. It is used for ground support in mining and tunneling applications, the lining of sewers and shafts, slope stabilization, and soil nailing. Substrates on which it may be applied include rock, soil, brick, or cementitious material.
