Sulfate durability and leaching behaviour of dry- and wet-mix shotcrete mixes
Shotcrete is a material frequently used in underground constructions such as tunnels, where Ca leaching and sulfate attack are important durability issues. In this study, two test methods were employed to investigate the sulfate resistance and leaching behaviour of dry- and wet-mix shotcretes in sulfate solutions on a time-resolved basis.

Part II of the study of a wet mix shotcrete focuses on creep and shrinkage as well as on the thermal and hygral behavior. It deals with the time-dependent mechanical behavior due autogenous shrinkage, combined autogenous and drying shrinkage, and basic creep and combined basic and drying creep for moderate and high levels of sustained compressive ...
