A small percentage of our work is erosion control. By erosion
control we're referring mostly to slope protection. Shotcrete
is placed in a varied thickness, with or without reinforced steel,
depending on the situation.We do inside protection in basements
and under houses to keep water from undermining foundations. Some
slopes consist of nearly vertical embankments which are shotcreted
with a rough (nozzle finish) following the contours of the slope.Another
type is used mostly in commercial applications under bridges and
along freeways,but can also be applied residentially. This type
of slope is usually a fine graded slope with wire mesh, forms
and with a smooth or broom finish applied.
