APPLICATIONS:
o Dragging softer material and below its track
level
o It is very useful for excavating trenches when
the sides are permitted to establish their angle
of repose without shoring.
o It has long reaches.
o Excavation for canals and depositing on the
embankment without hauling units.

Squeeze pumps or peristaltic pumps are the ones that use vacuum pumping. These pumps can
cover a distance of 90 m horizontally and 30 m vertically, and are capable of pumping 20 m3 of
concrete per hour using 3 inch pipes.
Key points :-
Gunite is also known as shotcrete or pneumatically
applied mortar.
It can be used on vertical and overhead, as well as on
horizontal surfaces and is particularly useful for
restoring surfaces spalled due to corrosion of
reinforcement.
Gunite is a mixture of Portland cement, sand and
water, shot into the place by compressed air.
