Reinforced Concrete and Diamond Blade Saw Cutting
Age of Concrete and Diamond Blades
The length of curing time after concrete is poured greatly affects the way a diamond blade will interact with it during cutting. Curing can be affected by weather (temperature, moisture and time of year) and the composition (admixtures, aggregate and sand).
Reinforced Concrete Cutting
Concrete can be reinforced with aggregate, steel rebar, wire mesh and etc.
Both the size and type of aggregate have a great impact on the overall hardness of concrete. The aggregate can make up as much as 75% of the total volume. As general rule, larger aggregate tends to make the concrete act harder, slowing diamond blade cutting. Smaller aggregate makes the concrete act softer, allowing for faster diamond blade cutting. Large aggregate can average up to 1-1/2" in diameter, while smaller aggregate can average in the range of 3/8" in diameter. The type of stone used as aggregate also has a great impact on the hardness of concrete. i.e. Limestone, Sandstone, Dolomite, Marble, River Rock, Granite, Basalt, Quartz, Flint and Chart.
In steel rebar reinforced concrete, the amount of rebar reinforcing on concrete is also a critical factor in determining material hardness. The more rebar, the harder the concrete acts.
