I am working on an existing building where the elevator penthouse walls are made of two whythes of brick. The wall is in bad shape. We are considering using shotcrete on the inside and outside face over the wall surface with some sort of ties all the way through.

Does anyone one have guidelines on the design of shotcrete?
