This study models and analyzes the dynamic behavior of shotcrete formwork during standard application procedure. Based on standard shotcrete application, a program was developed to simulate shotcrete application and the dynamic behavior of shotcrete formwork. This study shows that the random behavior standard shotcrete application have minimal impact on the maximum values of displacement and acceleration of a shotcrete formwork system, which justifies the significance of the simulations based on the precision of the results obtained. Standard design parameters were varied in order to determine their impact on the behavior of a formwork system, and determine which parameters had the greatest ability to control the displacement and acceleration of formwork during shotcrete application. by Michael David.
