Shotcrete Of The Outer Shell And The Sealing System, Dietmar Maehner
Shotcrete for Underground Support XIV
This report deals with the loading of the geomembrane during the construction phase of the inner shell of a tunnel. In a systematic parameter analysis at the institute for underground construction at FH Münster the geomembrane and the geotextile were tested under different realistic conditions. Laboratory testing showed a dependence on the seal support surface of the shotcrete and on the characteristics of the geotextile. The deformations of the membranes due to fresh concrete pressure are significantly smaller than the permitted values in the technical regulations.

Shotcrete for Underground Support XIV
Workability is a physical property of fresh concrete, which can’t be described with only one single parameter or measured with one single test method. Pumpability and sprayability plays an important role for wet-mix sprayed concrete. The material must be conveyed through the pipe without changing its properties and mix proportion. The mix should leave the nozzle in a uniform stream intermixed homogeneously with the accelerator.
When concrete is pumped through a pipe, a thin layer of paste is lubricating the wall of the pipe. The interaction of the lubricating layer and the pipe wall is of great importance for pumpability. …

Shotcrete for Underground Support XIV
Recently, natural hemp fibers have been developed for use in wet or dry mix shotcrete instead of conventional synthetic fibers made from petroleum. Synthetic fibers, which is mainly in polypropylene, has been used for controlling an initial shrinkage cracking in concrete, however, the effect was poor showing a severe plastic shrinkage cracking.
Plastic shrinkage cracking is a nonstructural crack that occurs due to the surface drying of concrete in a plastic condition due to rapid evaporation of bleeding water. The volume reduction due to plastic shrinkage and the resulting tensile stress exceeds the tensile strength of the concrete. In particular, …

Performance Improvement Of Shotcrete By Polymer Binder Modification, Klaus Bonin
Shotcrete for Underground Support XIV
Tunneling construction engineering cannot exist without sprayed concrete – whether it is in tunneling, mining or equivalent constructions. Underground construction is a vast field and will be of strategic urban importance in the future. On the one hand, many existing tunnels will need in short term repair work or enlargements, while there is huge demand for the construction of new ones.
Polymer-modified sprayed concrete is suitable for the most used wet shotcrete application, but, as it is also common to use dry shotcrete, it’s also possible to be used there.
The used polymer amount depends highly on the requirements, in …

Meaningful Testing Of Fibre Reinforced Shotcrete For Lining Designs, Des Vlietstra, Ralf Winterberg
Shotcrete for Underground Support XIV
The routine use of Fibre Reinforced Shotcrete (FRS) as an integral component of ground support systems is well-established. FRS, employing steel or macro synthetic fibres, is used worldwide in service conditions ranging from low stress friable ground to high stress hard rock, and over a wide range of exposure conditions, often harsh, such as at high temperature, chemically aggressive ground or waters, static stresses and dynamic loadings, etc.
Shotcrete linings require a rotation capacity in order to follow ground movements while the arching effect in the surrounding rock mass develops. The fibre reinforcement within the shotcrete overcomes the brittleness of …

Advanced Lining Systems And Sealing Applications On Shotcrete Surface, Prof. Dr.-Ing Herbert Klapperich, Dr.-Ing. Lars Vollmert, Dipl.-Ing Marc Meissner
Shotcrete for Underground Support XIV
Shotcrete forms the basis of lining systems for sealing purposes, in tunnel applications as well as on excavated slopes of reservoirs etc. Levelling uneven subsurfaces of rock or gravelly fills, shotcrete provides a surface of a certain quality, meeting static requirements. Nevertheless, depending on the type of construction, hydraulic aspects require additional measures to fulfill the requirements on sealing purposes and thus the long-term performance of the entire structure. Membranes made from polyethylene, which are perfectly suited for long-term performance, are of high sensitivity against puncture stress resulting from uneven surfaces. Besides the improvement of shotcrete surfaces themselves, protection liners …

Additive Manufacturing Of Monomer-Free Ormocer®-Based Composites For Dental And Audiological Application, Herbert Wolter, Carina Kolb, Somchith Nique
Composites at Lake Louise 2019
Additive manufacturing has a great potential, especially in the medical area where patient individual parts are required. However, there is still a lack of biocompatible materials which are printable and meet the high requirements of the targeted fields of end-use application (indirect dental restoration and earmolds). For this purpose, new types of inorganic-organic hybridpolymers (ORMOCERÒs) with the indispensable biocompatibility, combined with an adapted profile of properties, have been developed.

Energy Harvesting from Infrastructure and Ocean Systems (EHIOS)
Surface coating with high solar reflectance and high thermal emittance are attractive for saving energy in buildings. Conventional paints typically have a solar reflactance < 93% due to UV and near infrared absorption. Here we demonstrate a porous PVdF copolymer surface coating that shows high solar reflectance of over 96% and high thermal emittance of 0.97. When it is placed under sunlight, it can be 6 oC cooler than the environment without any electricity.

Control Strategies For Integrated Continuous Bioprocessing, Christoph Herwig
Control Strategies For Integrated Continuous Bioprocessing, Christoph Herwig
Integrated Continuous Biomanufacturing IV
Continuous Bioprocessing is perceived to deliver constant product quality and to achieve higher time space yields. This is not new. Other market segments run well established continuous processes successfully since decades. What do we need to do? Just establishing continuous single unit operations (e.g. SMB chromatography) will not suffice. We need to have an integrated look at the entire process chain and stringently use the following control strategies :
- Capture process variability of the preceding unit operation using advanced PAT tools. Just measuring CPPs will not suffice: We need RMAs and intermediate CQAs to be transparent across the process chain. …
