Can concrete slabs be cut?
Yes, concrete slabs can be cut to the desired size, but this requires the use of the right tools. Here are some tips on how to properly cut concrete slabs:
How to cut concrete slabs:
- Cutting tools:
- It is best to use a diamond blade designed for concrete to cut concrete slabs. You can use:
- An angle grinder with a diamond blade,
- A circular saw with the appropriate blade.
- Cutting should be done dry.
- Before cutting, make sure that the slabs are firmly placed on a level surface.
- It is worth marking the cutting line with a marker or chalk in advance to ensure precise cutting.
- A lot of dust is released when cutting concrete, so you should use a protective mask, goggles and gloves.
- Cutting in an open space or with good ventilation will reduce the amount of dust in the room.
- After cutting concrete slabs, the edges may be raw and may expose components of the concrete, such as small stones. If necessary, they can be smoothed using a sander or sandpaper.
