.
Securing cutouts
Secure cutouts from walls and especially from ceilings and floors by
suitable means, e.g. crane, supports, etc.
Check the weight of concrete. (1
ft
³ =
150lbs
)
Decide on position and sequence of the cuts
Position of cuts
Find out about the concrete or masonry to be sawed:
– Where does the reinforcement run?
– Is the concrete heavily or lightly reinforced?
Cut across the reinforcement if possible.
Cutting sequence
Decide on the sequence of cuts before starting work. For example, for a
window cutout carry out the bottom cut first, then the side cuts, and finally
the top cut.
