Concrete Structural Walls
Structural walls made with concrete construction have historically been a standard for durability, stability, affordability and ease of installation. Over the years however, new techniques have been developed which deliver equal durability, easier installation, and more flexibility while maintaining the benefits of concrete.
Concrete Wall Construction
A new standard in concrete wall construction is the use of materials/methods such as gunite and shotcrete. These structural concrete walls are built using rebar and wire-mesh reinforcement filled and covered with the proper mixture and application of a wet shotcrete mixture or dry gunite application. Important considerations such as quality and experience must be made when choosing a contractor for supporting concrete walls, as many factors such as foundation, soil or ground management, stress, load and other issues make proper construction and selection of materials critical in determining the overall life, safety and quality of your final product.
Concrete Replacement or Repair
Concrete walls are generally in place for supporting major structures. Replacement, refurbishment or repair are common issues with older concrete structures which line our countries bridges, drainage ditches, retaining walls and other key structures. Replacing or repairing concrete walls has never been an easy or inexpensive task. However, by working with professionals like Fenton Shotcrete / Gunite division, these repair & replacement tasks can be completed much more quickly and at a typical 20% savings when compared to non-specialist contractors still using more conventional concrete methods.
