Calcium-leaching-resistant shotcrete for subsea tunnels: Effects of alkali-free accelerator, early-strength material and leaching inhibitor

Calcium leaching can reduce the long-term mechanical capacity of shotcrete used as primary support in subsea tunnels. This study investigated the effects of an alkali-free accelerator, an early-strength material (ESM), and a leaching inhibitor on the strength development, pore st...
