Cobra Concrete: It’s All About The People And The Tools

If someone said to you that concrete cutting wasn’t rocket science, they’d be wrong. If you stop and think about it, rocket science involves a group of highly trained professionals with expertise in a niche industry that utilizes specific tools to achieve goals.

That’s exactly what concrete cutting involves, and the trained professionals at Cobra Concrete have a cache of niche tools ready to help you achieve your goals. Cobra Concrete staffs only fully qualified, safety certified technicians to operate some of the most powerful concrete cutting tools in the construction industry today. It takes experience and concentration to negotiate hazardous job sites and effectively handle these precision machines. Cobra’s equipment includes:

Concrete flat sawing involves large walk-behind cutting equipment that can slice up to 32 inches through dense materials. The machines in Cobra Concrete’s cutting fleet run as high as 110 horse power. They include a mix of gas diesel powered and electric-driven engines that overcome air quality factors. Slab sawing specialists are commonly brought in to handle duties such as:

• Dividing reinforced floors
• Cutting Control and Expansion Joints
• Utility Installation Trenching
• Pavement Removal and Advanced Demolition
• Creating Pathways for other Subcontractors

Large walk-behind slab saws often use diamond edged blades and require highly skilled and safety qualified technicians to operate them effectively.

When vertical openings through concrete or other dense materials are needed, no cutting tools are safer or more efficient than a wall saw. Cobra Concrete’s wall cutting tools hit depths of 36 inches with precision. They are often set on a track anchored to the wall that allows the diamond blades to make perfect cuts. Technicians can also negotiate flush cuts to an existing surface and create seamless openings. Common wall cutting jobs often include:

One of the concrete cutting tools that helped revolutionize the industry is the wire saw. Regardless of how thick a column, slab or beam is, the bearded wire design with diamond inserts can be stretched around it. The directional cut can be managed by guided pulleys at multiple angles. This cutting tool outpaces many conventional technologies with its unparalleled abilities. A wire saw can be integrated into any commercial, industrial or residential environment with the right technician at the helm.

Although technology has advanced concrete cutting tools , some jobs require workers to get it done by hand. Handheld saws are often employed in tight quarters that are impractical for big machines. These cutting tools resemble a high-powered carpenter’s circular saw. Cobra Concrete’s handheld cutting tools are electric and hydraulic with the ability to make 6-inch cuts. Similarly, concrete-ready chainsaws are primarily used to square corners to finish out the deep slab and wall cuts.

When it comes to having an arsenal of cutting tools, Cobra Concrete has the everything you need to get the job done. Just like rocket science, it’s all about the people and the tools!
