Cold Cut Rebar
Following recent updates in the fire prevention legislation, the contractor are actively encouraging and working to eliminate the requirement for all hot works through the design phases.
They have worked with the subcontractor to procure a hydraulic cordless rebar cutter that is spark-free and eliminates the requirement for hot works/permits. The cutter significantly reduces noise during the rebar cutting in comparison to traditional methods. This allows for quieter operations and a quieter construction site.
This eliminates hot works which reduces fire risk on site and the risk of burns injury, benefitting the health and wellbeing of the operatives by reducing exposure to high-noise levels and Hand Arm Vibration (HAVs) exposure due to its reduced vibration.
