ASTM C1436-13

Standard Specification for Materials for Shotcrete (Withdrawn 2022)

ABSTRACT
This specification covers the materials for use in hydraulic-cement concrete mixtures to be placed by wet-mix and dry-mix shotcreting. It does not however cover mixing, placement, curing, or protection of the concrete placed by shotcreting. The materials used as ingredients shall consist of cements, aggregates, water, mineral and chemical admixtures, and fibers. Testing, number of tests, and retests shall be performed on the specified materials to ensure the quality of the materials.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers materials for use in hydraulic-cement concrete mixtures to be placed by shotcreting. It does not cover mixing, placement, curing, or protection of the concrete placed by shotcreting.  
1.2 This specification covers materials for both wet-mix and dry-mix shotcreting.  
1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.  
1.4  This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of the standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
WITHDRAWN RATIONALE
This specification covers materials for use in hydraulic-cement concrete mixtures to be placed by shotcreting. It does not cover mixing, placement, curing, or protection of the concrete placed by shotcreting.
Formerly under the jurisdiction of Committee C09 on Concrete and Concrete Aggregates, this specification was withdrawn in July 2022 in accordance with section 10.6.3 of the Regulations Governing ASTM Technical Committees, which requires that standards shall be updated by the end of the eighth year since the last approval date.
