DQ5 Diamond Wire Project – Yammine Contracting Company

YCC were commissioned for a 30 week building renovation project in Qatar as the leading Diamond Wire Sawing and Drilling contractors. The project included: 40 x 3m x 3m reinforced concrete foundations with C40 Newton concrete strength, containing 180pcs 20mm rebar spaced 15cm apart. The Wire Saw being used was a Hilti WS15 running at 22m per second.nnTo saw cut and remove the existing concrete foundations. The project called for a wet diamond wire saw solution that would reduce the amount of time it took to cut the foundations down, but with low vibration, dust and noise due to the surrounding populated homes.

Diaquip needed to provide a fast, long-lasting and cost effective Diamond Wire. It was essential that the wire performed well on reinforced concrete (including 20mm steel rebar). The Diaquip DQ5 diamond wire was chosen for the project as it is constructed using a totally new method, called Fusion Tech which gives DQ5 much better speed and life advantages. Can be used effectively on virtually all concrete types including highly reinforced concrete or concrete with exposed steel.

DQ5 Diamond wire can cut quickly, even when using lower wire sawing machine speeds. This wire has been developed using ‘Fusion Technology’ innovation, which has proved to be a game changer in the diamond wire sawing industry standards. Yammine Contracting company have excellent feedback from its wire saw operators, they were able to complete the project 2 days earlier than planned due to the speed of the wire sawing. Diaquip’s DQ5 diamond wire helped to keep the wire sawing time down both with excellent speed and life of the wire.
