Mounted Wall Sawing - A rigid track is mounted
to the wall. A carriage, holding a wall
saw head, is locked onto the track. The
saw blade is mounted on the saw head, plunged
into the wall and propelled down the track
leaving a cut that is straight and true.
Track mounted wall saws reduce operator
fatigue and produce straighter cuts than
hand sawing methods. If overcuts are unacceptable,
a concrete cutting chain saw can be used
to clean up the corners.
These saws are capable of cutting 27"
deep, from one side of the wall, and have
the added advantage of being able to cut
flush with an adjacent wall, floor or ceiling.
Diamond Cut will utilize this method of
wall sawing when one or more of the following
conditions are present:
- Extremely hard aggregates, which slow
down cutting speeds.
- Heavy concentrations of reinforcing
steel
- Concrete thickness in excess of the
depth capability of hand saws. (usually
10")
- Long straight cuts such as retaining
walls and foundation wall cuts.
- When finished cuts are exposed and need
to be square and true.
- When cuts need to be flush with an adjacent
wall, floor or ceiling.
