Hydro Demolition - Uses For Concrete Removal
Hydro demolition is a process of removing concrete that uses high-pressure water blasts to get rid of concrete, asphalt and grout. It is also referred to as hydro blasting, water blasting, hydro milling and water jetting. The surface area is increased as a result of hydro demolition as it makes the surface rough. As a consequence of this process, the surface becomes good for bonding with repair material and coating. The process of hydro demolition was developed in Europe in the 1970s and is ...

High Pressure Water Jet Concrete Cutting
A technique of cutting concrete that uses no heat or spark is to use a water jet. Water jet concrete cutting uses compressed water that travels at twice the speed of sound to cut through concrete. The water used is at a high pressure, over 25,000 psi. This allows precise control over the cutting, resulting in the creation of complex shapes. The water jet used for water jet concrete cutting contains abrasive particles and travels at up to 750 metres per second. The abrasive acts to erode the ...

High Pressure Water Jetting - Environmentally Friendly Surface Preparation
Cleaning a surface, whether porous or not, is a primary step before repainting or recovering an object.

It is a form of hydro-cleaning - which means shooting water at a high pressure and concentrating its direction at the surface to be cleaned. Loose particles, dust, and contaminants must be taken off first otherwise it will greatly impact the new application negatively. The new coating eit...
