A Glimpse Into The Field Of Concrete Drilling

When you speak of concrete drilling, it’s all about the entire process of making holes through concrete walls, floors and other concrete structures. The most commonly accepted use of diamond concrete cutting tools is concrete core drilling. Core rigs, its other term can be manipulated in any kind of orientation may it be vertical, horizontal or even upside down for drilling concrete ceilings. It is made up of steel tube with diamond segments that are attached or laser-welded on the drilling end.

Core bits are usually being placed on the rotating shaft of different kinds of concrete drilling machines. A lot of concrete core drills are connected to a certain stand that’s secured on a wall or floor with a concrete anchor added with bolts. However, there are concrete core drills that actually use vacuum pressure to be attached to the floor.

Also, there are different kinds or types of “hand held” core drills. These drills are powered by electricity, hydraulic, gasoline and even power sources. These concrete core drill bits have different range in diameter from ½ inch to 72 inches in diameter. The depths are actually unlimited as long as you use extensions. Once the drilling is done, the slug which is now cylinder shaped is being removed. With this, you can do whatever you want. Therefore, you can say that the applications of concrete core drilling don’t have any limits.

Usually, these core holes are used for certain utility penetrations like plumbing, heating and electrical stuff. These are also commonly used for venting furnaces or clothe dryers. Concrete core drills will make it easy for the installation of sprinkler systems, HVAC ducts, fiber optics, phone lines, computer lines and a lot more. These drilling methods are commonly being used in underground constructions like manhole taps, underground vaults, sewer, water systems, and communication lines.

There’s also a line drilling that’s quite similar to making holes. These are done when core holes are drilled in a series of overlapping holes in a row. This would allow one large piece of concrete to be removed.  It’s a very efficient method of cutting and removing square or rectangle shaped concretes with any kind of thickness that can’t be done by other cutting methods.

All these methods can only be done by professionals.
