Flat Sawing
Flat sawing uses a blade that is mounted vertically on a saw that the operator usually walks behind. Slab saws are typically used to cut on flat slabs of concrete or asphalt. They can also be used to plunge cut into walls. Slab sawing can eliminate the dust and vibration that comes with breaking up concrete, and can allow clean pieces to be cut, instead of irregular shaped pieces that are created by using a breaker. Common applications for slab saws include, but are not limited to:
Removing large sections of factory or warehouse flooring, while still leaving a clean, straight opening
Cutting for trenches to run electrical, water, or data lines
Sawing for cleaner and easier removal of patios, driveways, basement floors, etc.
Sawing highway and bridge decks
Plunge cutting into barrier walls on bridges to facilitate removal
Electric Flat Sawing
Used any place where you cannot use a clean diesel machine due to emission concerns, for example in closed basements, office buildings, hospitals, etc.
Wall Sawing
The uses of wall sawing typically include cutting windows, doors, openings for HVAC, various building modifications such as elevators, stair openings, and separation cuts for demolition. Wall saws are track mounted and demonstrate incredibly precise dimensions in nearly all areas of a building, namely walls, floors, roof, beams, and footings. Cobra Concrete’s wall saws have the capability to create incisions up to 36” from one side at any angle and can even cut flush to adjacent surfaces.
We have hydraulic and electric capabilities that can cut through reinforced concrete, precast concrete, brick, and cinderblock. We have yet to come across a concrete structure that we cannot handle.
Wiring Sawing
One of the advantages of wire sawing is its capability to cut through any concrete at any depth. We recommend this method over many others due to its increased safety when removing large amounts of concrete while keeping surrounding structures intact and maintaining its integrity. Another advantage of this method is its considerable decrease in the noise produced. There is a myriad of wire available to use, but we believe, and have experienced that diamond wire is the most efficient way to separate foundations, bridges, create openings in thick walls, and remove equipment pads.
Core Drilling
Coring holes of just about any size and depth can be achieved through this process, from small to very large in diameters. Coring can be done in slabs and walls, on any angle and even upside down through a ceiling when no access is available. Diamond core drilling can be used for many applications, including but not limited to holes for:
Plumbing
Electrical
HVAC
Telecommunication Lines
Anchor Bolts
Concrete Sample Analysis
These techniques are commonly used in concrete, precast concrete, asphalt, brick, cinderblock and tile. Core drilling machines typically run off of electric power sources but for large diameter holes hydraulic is available.
Concrete Grinder
Concrete Grinding is a process that uses a piece of equipment and abrasive tooling to wear down or remove concrete toppings or concrete surfaces. This process is very common when refurbishing floors in commercial and industrial buildings. Most of the time, there are materials that need to be removed from the concrete before a new floor can be put down. Concrete Grinders are very popular for this job.
