Shotcrete

CREATIVE SOLUTIONS

Jos. J. Albanese, Inc. is a worldwide leader in shotcrete construction. Before going any further, keep in mind that shotcrete is concrete; it's simply a means and method for placing concrete. Whether it be 80’, multi-radius walls or a typical foundation wall, JJA has pushed the use of the shotcrete process on its projects. The bottom line is that it adds days back to your project schedule through less forming and clean up. JJA’s professional shotcrete personnel will work hand-in-hand with engineers, architects, and clients to ensure that the shotcrete option is accepted for a particular project and that the work is successfully performed. With six certified nozzlemen and three shotcrete pump units, the shotcrete department is just another example of JJA’s tireless mission to better serve its clients.
