Job Site Benefits
Increased Productivity
Increased speed of concrete removals
Reduces construction time
Typical Hydrodemolition equipment has same productivity of 10-12 jackhammers
Increased Safety
Remote operated robotic units eliminate worker hazards, increasing safety and lowering labour costs.
Low Impact
When compared to other mechanical methods hydrodemolition noise is minimal
Dust is eliminated
No micro fracture of substrate (good concrete)
Rough surfaces provide a superior bonding surface for repair materials
Selective removal
Removal of concrete down to a pre-set quality level. I.e. no unnecessary removal of good quality concrete.
No microcracks
The technology does not create micro-cracks in the remaining surface, unlike percussive methods. A micro-crack is a non-bonding zone.
Rough surface – bonding
The rough surface provides a far better bond for the new concrete, compared to removal by percussive methods.
Versatile Applications
Hydrodemolition can be used for horizontal, vertical and overhead concrete removal of surface preparation on any reinforced or non reinforced structure from scarification to full depth.
