Diamond cutting of concrete - equipment for cutting holes.

Diamond cutting of concrete without dust and vibrations is not a new technology and has been known for more than half a century. But the real need to carry out these works at the household level appeared only in the last decade.

Diamond cutting of reinforced concrete is used in the following cases:

1. Redevelopment of the apartment.
2. Arrangement of additional exits to the balcony.
3. Removing interior partitions to turn an apartment into a studio apartment.
4. Combining kitchen with loggia to increase the space.
5. Drilling holes for communications.

Features of the implementation of diamond cutting

Diamond cutting on concrete in comparison with other technologies is a safer procedure, allowing to achieve high results, which led to its wide distribution.

Consider the features of the use of equipment for work on concrete:

In addition, cutting concrete with diamond wire has such significant advantages:

1. This technology allows you to get holes of any shape..
2. Total lack of vibration.
3. In addition to concrete, you can cut brick, ceramic, stone structures, as well as asphalt.
4. High precision finished holes and openings. Diamond drilling holes in the concrete allows you to eliminate the scrap, allowed when working with other technologies.

Hole cutting equipment

Diamond cutting is carried out by means of high-precision and powerful equipment:

• Hydraulic and electric wall sawing machines.
• Diamond wire for cutting reinforced concrete and crowns.
• Chains and gas cutters.
• Diamond cutters for concrete, with high power.
• Discs.

Ropes and chains with a diamond dusting are used when working with structures of considerable thickness. This may be a thick wall or column. The range of nozzles for cutting concrete includes more than a thousand discs, ropes and chains of various designs coated with an artificial diamond.

Tip! It is best to purchase discs and nozzles for cutting concrete made in Germany, Austria or Sweden. Such nozzles are very reliable and have a long service life.

A specialist who cuts concrete must understand the entire range of cutters, since they are produced for different cutting of different materials, therefore nozzles have significant differences in constructive terms. The table below shows a small instruction on the correct choice of cutters, depending on the material of the structure being processed:

Tip! For the implementation of wet and dry cutting, you must use discs of various designs. If you use the cutting tool for other purposes, it may cause premature wear of the equipment.

How is diamond cutting performed

Since cutting of reinforced concrete with diamond circles often implies serious interference in the construction of a building, its implementation is not complete without the participation of specialists such as architects, and sometimes civil engineers.

By the way, if you choose a company, then preference should be given to the one that has its own specialists in the areas described above. The cost of diamond cutting of concrete is determined on the basis of the material of the partition, the complexity and scope of work, as well as other technical nuances.

In addition, the firm must have all the necessary licenses for such work. For its part, the customer must provide technical documents and acts, as well as permission to work from the relevant organization.

Diamond cutting is done as follows:

1. At the initial stage of the work, the invited expert should consider the design features of the room.
2. In accordance with the study, the power of the cutting equipment and the required type of nozzles will be selected.

1. Next, you need to perform all measurements and make markup, delineating all the contours of future openings.
2. At the final stage, diamond cutting is carried out. It should be noted here that even with special equipment, it is highly undesirable to do the work yourself, since this operation requires a great deal of experience and special knowledge. Here it is best to entrust the work of professionals.

Recycling

Recycling резки является очень важным моментом проведения подобных работ. К отходам относятся бетонные блоки или их обломки, фрагменты демонтируемой конструкции.

Also here can be attributed, and sludge - water-concrete-metal mixture formed at the place of the cutting. It is the result of using water to cool the instrument, as well as reducing the amount of dust.

Serious firms without waste do the work of recycling, so the customer should inquire about this service in advance.

This will allow you to avoid a number of problems:

• Firstly, very often the customer cannot dispose of the garbage on his own due to its size and heavy weight.

• Secondly, special equipment is required to divert water, and organizing drainage at the household level will be quite a problematic task.

Conclusion

Diamond cutting of concrete is a modern way to create holes in durable concrete structures, which has undeniable advantages. The average price for the execution of work is calculated by a representative of the company that was chosen by you.
