Hydraulic Bursting

Hydraulic Bursting is one of the safest and easiest ways of removing mass and reinforced concrete walls or floors.

Diamond Drilled Holes are formed in the material spaced to create manageable sections to ease removal. The burster is then placed into the hole and uses forces of up to 413 tons to crack and separate the material being removed. Due to the immense forces generated by this hydraulic powered machinery, the need for the conventional concrete breaking methods is greatly reduced.

Diamond Technique have amongst other very sensitive works successfully drilled and burst reinforced concrete bases of over 1500mm deep sited within 25 metres of hospital operating theatres
