Stetten salt mine - Spray Concrete
Stetten salt mine - Spray Concrete
Polymer-modified concrete is sprayed onto the walls in the Stetten salt mine to stabilize the tunnel and to act as a barrier to water seepage. The innovative formulation reduces the rebound during spray application, and so minimizes waste and material consumption.
