Kingstar Contracts recommend and use diamond cutting systems because they can provide significant cost advantages over conventional concrete removal methods. These advantages vary depending on the project. A quick review of this chart shows why industrial diamonds have revolutionised concrete cutting.		DIAMOND CUTTING SYSTEMS		CONVENTIONAL CONCRETE REMOVAL SYSTEMS
		TIME
		Fast Fewer operations Pre-outage work possible Cuts rebar and other materials		Slow, methodical Labour intensive Pre-outage work not possible Metal cutting required
		DIMENSIONAL TOLERANCE
		Precise cuts Limited patchwork		Uncontrolled openings Extensive patchwork
		STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY
		Vibration free Ability to remove large amounts of concrete while maintaining structural integrity		High impact vibration causes micro fractures of concrete Potential damage to remaining structures
		NOISE, DUST, DEBRIS
		Non-disruptive to surrounding operations Relatively quiet Pieces cut to size Dust free Large bulk removal capability		Disruptive Loud Creates rubble Extremely dusty Time consuming clean-up
		LIMITED ACCESS
		Remote operations possible Cuts in closed spaces Underwater operations possible Easily cuts around existing pipes and electrical fixtures		Inflexible equipment Restricted movement Underwater operations difficult or impossible Difficult to work around piping and existing equipment
