Abstract

Currently, ordinary Portland cement is the main cementing material for shotcrete in tunnels in my country. Part of the use of single-doped silica fume or fly ash, however, there are few cementitious materials that use double-doped or multi-doped mineral admixtures. Due to the single composition of the cementitious material, poor gradation, and low quality, the concrete has poor compactness, insufficient viscosity, and large rebound. The use of "multiple" mineral admixtures can better solve the problem of high rebound rate of shotcrete in tunnels. Among them, mineral admixtures include mineral powder, fly ash, silica fume and limestone powder. The cementitious material in concrete can be single-mixed, double-mixed or multi-mixed with mineral admixtures. In this way, the heat of hydration when the concrete sets and hardens can be reduced, reduce the cracking of concrete, improve the compactness and viscosity of concrete and reduce the rebound rate of concrete.
 The aim of research: the overall idea and technical measures to solve the high rebound rate of shotcrete or 3D printer mix and the high amount of cementitious materials using Chinese industrial waste.
 Scientific novelty of research: optimal compositions using Chinese industrial waste for wet shotcrete, optimal compositions using Chinese industrial waste for 3D construction printers, basic properties of wet shotcrete composites with using Chinese industrial waste, basic properties of 3D construction printer composites with using Chinese industrial waste.
