You must have come across several options for the methods to choose. Which were the two most prominent ones out of the lot? That\u2019s right, Shotcrete and Gunite are the two best ways that we use to build concrete pools.<\/p><p>The basic difference between the two methods relates to the time when we add water to the concrete bed of our pool. Gunite is the term used when we refer to the dry mix of the concrete. Shotcrete, on the other hand, refers to the wet concrete mix.<\/p><p>In Shotcrete vs Gunite, the two mixtures contain aggregate, sand, and cement in almost the same quantity. However, when it comes to water, the proportion and the method of mixing change.\u00a0 The method that uses Shotcrete has a cement truck already mixing water. The mixed product sprays out of the hose into the pool bed.<\/p><p>On the other hand, Gunite, which is the dry mixture, will have the water combined at the opening of the nozzle. The water and concrete combine when we spray them.<\/p><p>To choose the right one for your use, it is crucial to understand their application, advantages, and disadvantages.

For this to prepare, you need to have a mixture of concrete that is thoroughly mixed. Once done, the cement truck delivers the wet mix. For this process, you use a compressed form of air to shoot out the concrete.<\/p><p>The compressed air provides enough pressure for the concrete to combine with water. This is done at a very high speed to make the process quick and easy.<\/p><p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6452 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/homendgarden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/maxresdefault-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/homendgarden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/maxresdefault-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/homendgarden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/maxresdefault-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/homendgarden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/maxresdefault-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/homendgarden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/maxresdefault.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p><h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Advantages_of_Shotcrete\"><\/span>Advantages of Shotcrete<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><h3>Quick Process<\/h3><p>Since Shotcrete is applied at high pressure and speed, and you can complete it quickly. Depending on the number of materials you use, the entire mixture dries up.<\/p><h3>Lesser Weak Spots<\/h3><p>As Shotcrete uses water in its mixture, the resultant is less rigid and brittle. The materials can mold into each other easily and make the mixture flowy. Therefore, this ensures there are no gaps in between the materials and thus has reduced weak spots.<\/p><h3>Premixed<\/h3><p>Another advantage of using Shotcrete while comparing Shotcrete vs. Gunite is that it comes premixed. This gives a lot of time for all the constituents to settle down and mix well. This produces a strong coat that is consistent too.<\/p><h3>Requires Unskilled Labor<\/h3><p>As the mixture is easy to handle and is pre-mixed, you eliminate the need to have a skilled set of labor. Therefore, the crew only has to apply it to places without having to get into technical details.<\/p><h3>Mixes Admixtures Well<\/h3><p>Due to the already present water in this concrete mixture, we can easily add admixtures that could improve the properties of the material. The admixtures form an even paste and do not change the thickness of the concrete.\u00a0<\/p><p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6454 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/homendgarden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Shotcretepool-1024x680.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"680\" srcset=\"https:\/\/homendgarden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Shotcretepool-1024x680.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/homendgarden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Shotcretepool-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/homendgarden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Shotcretepool-768x510.jpg 768w, https:\/\/homendgarden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Shotcretepool.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p><h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Disadvantages_of_Shotcrete\"><\/span>Disadvantages of Shotcrete<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><h3>Shrinkage Risk<\/h3><p>In Shotcrete vs. Gunite, Shotcrete has a disadvantage due to its added water. As there are always chances of the water evaporating after the application, it may leave cracks.<\/p><p>This happens because by adding water, we increase the volume of the mixture, but due to evaporation, the spaces stay empty and thus form cracks.<\/p><h3>Less Application Times<\/h3><p>Shotcrete mixture arrives premixed at the site. As they already have the mixture ready in perfect proportions, the site crew is left with less time for any last-minute changes or decisions.<\/p><p>They are then required to apply the mixture as quickly as possible before the water dries up, or the mixture changes its property.<\/p><h3>Expensive<\/h3><p>When compared to Shotcrete vs. Gunite, the production of cost of Shotcrete stands higher. As the factory unit requires to add the exact proportion of water to concrete, this marks for extra labor charges than Gunite.<\/p><h3>Changes the Final Product<\/h3><p>Another disadvantage of Shotcrete is the probable need to add water on site. If the application time is higher, the water in the mixture will dry up. As a result, the site crew will have to add water again, which changes the property of the final product too.<\/p><h3>Low Strength<\/h3><p>Shotcrete is weaker than Gunite. The possible reason for this disadvantage is the already present water that takes up a percentage of volume and reduces the strength of the product.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-223b667c elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"223b667c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" id=\"2\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-e2740a4 elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"e2740a4\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-359b0e22\" data-id=\"359b0e22\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-50593c2e elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"50593c2e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Gunite\"><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Lifeline-Aluminum-Utility-Collapsible-Activities\/dp\/B004O5B6XM\/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?s=lawn-garden&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1538909688&#038;sr=1-2-spons&#038;keywords=Snow+Shovel&#038;psc=1&#038;tag=homendgarden-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">2.

The amount of water you use while curing should be closely taken into consideration so that the property of the mixture stays.<\/p><h3>More Application Time<\/h3><p>Since you add the water on-site, it gives more time to the crew.
