COMMERCIAL SHOTCRETE & GUNITE

Top Gun of Virginia is a premier supplier of commercial shotcrete and gunite services on the east coast. Shotcrete and gunite are forms of pneumatically-applied concrete which can be used to build or repair structures. Shotcrete and gunite can perform jobs which are not possible or are more difficult with traditional “form and pour” concrete applications.

Top Gun uses our own volumetric trucks to apply engineer-certified mixes of both wet and dry process applications to meet any need.

Preconstruction Planning

We work closely with engineering and architectural firms to design and develop the proper specifications and drawing information for projects utilizing shotcrete applications.

We have the knowledge and the experience to ensure that all of the details are properly thought through before starting work on a job.

Determining the Best Process for Your Engineering

We work with structural engineers that specialize in slope stabilization, soil nails, H pile wood lagging retaining walls, and under pinning.

We can provide PE stamped drawings for these and other advanced projects along with an estimate.

SERVICES

Structural Shotcrete applied to the face of a soil nail wall for permanent or temporary support

Soil Nail Facing

Structural Shotcrete applied to the face of these structures to create a wall and further stabilize the system used to support excavation

H Pile and Wood Lagging Facing

OSHA approved shooting Shotcrete on slopes for safety purposes in lieu of sheet piles as it is a more cost effective method and can be done quickly to speed up production schedules. We also work with Amusement Parks to use colored Shotcrete on slopes that mimic the surrounding area and eliminate the growth of underbrush, weeds and grass

Slope Stabilization

Stabilize aged brick and stone foundations and facades with Structural Shotcrete and Gunite

Foundation and Building Façade Stabilization

Use of Structural Shotcrete to stabilize an existing structure for future development

Underpinning as Specified by PE Stamped Drawings

Shotcrete applied over rip rap to stabilize the structure and provide a rough road training surface

Off Road Obstacle Courses for Government and Military Training

A method in lieu of form and pour which can reduce forming and labor costs by 40% and speed up production schedules. There are no cold joints in Shotcrete applications and if used in lieu of form and pour there is little or no liquid head pressure. Complex shapes require very little or no formwork

One Sided Wall Forming for Hard to Form Radius Walls and Other Structures

Using Shotcrete can reduce labor costs by 50% and speed up a production schedule as more area can be placed faster than hand patching

Vertical and Overhead Repairs

Shotcrete is placed over systems and forms PE designed by others

Overhead Domes

Shotcrete applied in ditches to provide better irrigation and to eliminate wash outs

GALLERY

"CADCON and our sister company FdNCON have worked in varying capacities with Top Gun over the last 10+ years. We have been an engineering consultant, a sub-contractor and a contractor hiring Top Gun as a subcontractor. We have provided engineering for them; we have provided job functions that they themselves did not provide for many clients and we have used them on our projects as well. Obviously, we have had experience with them in many construction functions. In all instances the experience has been exemplary. Their professionalism in quality control, price control, standardization, job performance and scheduling is as good or better than anyone in the industry. We will continue to be an avid Top Gun proponent in the future and recommend that you do the same for your shotcrete needs.”
