  • A technique in which concrete is shot from a high-pressure hose with an accelerator; produces stiff, strong material that stays where placed without heavy formwork.
  • Making molds for small ornamental segments and inserting pre-cast concrete blocks into a chase in poured concrete walls.
  • Alexander's technique of carving cheap styrofoam as formwork for complex concrete shapes, enabling brackets, arches, and ornament at low cost.
  • Emerging technique of shooting concrete over welded wire fabric to form hollow columns, beams, and arches with high moment of inertia at low material weight.
  • A hybrid system combining interior wood post-and-beam for vertical forces with exterior thin concrete shell for horizontal and shear forces.
