Hydraulic Bursting

Hydraulic Bursting is one of the safest and most efficient methods of removing reinforced or mass concrete, brickwork, or natural stone.

Hydraulic Bursters are placed in pre-drilled holes and expanded to induce controlled cracking of the material. Thus reducing it to manageable sections for removal.

What’s more, the equipment can be used in confined spaces without risk. Indeed, Corecut have used this technology to remove heavily reinforced concrete up to 5m thick in structures such as dams, bridges, and nuclear power stations where a precise, controlled system of removal was required.
