Application: Pipe Installation in Confined Space

Project Overview

This case study highlights a stitched drilling project completed to create a 1.4m circular concrete opening, cut to a depth of 400mm, within a confined space. The opening was required to allow for safe and accurate pipe installation while maintaining the integrity of the surrounding structure.

Client Requirement

The client needed a large-diameter circular opening formed in existing concrete using a method suitable for limited access areas. Accuracy, safety, and a clean finish were essential to ensure smooth installation of the new pipe.

Project Challenges

Confined working space with restricted access
Precision required for a 1.4m stitched concrete opening

• Cutting depth of 400mm in reinforced concrete
• Maintaining safety and structural stability

Stitched Drilling Solution

Our team used stitched drilling , a highly effective technique for creating precise circular openings in concrete where traditional cutting methods are not suitable. The work was carefully planned and executed to ensure exact dimensions and minimal disruption.

With detailed set-out and experienced operatives, the stitched drilling process delivered a smooth and accurate opening, ready for pipe installation.

Scope of Work

Stitched drilling for a 1.4m circular opening

• Concrete cutting to 400mm depth
• Confined space working with full safety measures
• Site preparation for pipe installation

Project Outcome

• 1.4m stitched concrete opening successfully completed
• Clean, accurate cut with no damage to surrounding structure
• Safe and efficient completion in a confined environment
• Opening ready for immediate pipe installation
