Step
4: Concrete Blow In (Gunite)
Pre-mixed, dry concrete
material (Gunite) mixed with water is
now applied through a Gunite hose. Minimal
water, along with extreme force, results
in an extremely strong compacted concrete
structure.
Skilled workers then
shape the Gunite to form the pool shell
to specification. Because of the compression,
8 inches of gunite is equal to 36 inches
of poured concrete.
