Shear Cutting

Precision cutting for metal and reinforced structures

ARCO DISMANTLING provides expert shear cutting for heavy structural components such as steel beams, pipes, and rebar. Our method uses mechanized attachments to perform precise, controlled cuts that minimize vibration and prevent collateral damage.

We specialize in reducing large metal elements into manageable pieces for efficient removal and recycling. Through careful technical planning and safe execution, we ensure every dismantling operation is handled systematically and professionally.

Engineering-Led Shear Cutting Approach

Shear cutting begins with a detailed assessment of the material type, section thickness, access conditions, and existing structural reinforcement. This helps determine how the material will behave during cutting and separation.

Based on this evaluation, cutting locations, sequence, and execution order are carefully planned to maintain structural control, minimise sudden load release, and ensure safe cutting throughout the operation.

Key Considerations for Shear Cutting

Type of Material Being Cut

Different steel sections and reinforcement types respond differently to shear cutting.

Thickness and Section Size

Thicker sections and larger members require controlled cutting force and sequencing.

Connection to Adjacent Elements

Connected structural elements influence load release during shear cutting operations.

Handling and Removal Method

Cut sections must be sized properly for safe handling and site removal.

    Controlled Shear Cutting for Enhanced Safety

    Shear cutting requires accuracy to avoid sudden release of loads and uncontrolled movement.

    • Cutting positions are selected to allow gradual separation of structural elements
    • Material movement is controlled to prevent sudden drop or swing during cutting
    • Cut sections are sized appropriately to allow safe handing and removal from the site
    • Execution is mentioned to ensure stable and predictable cutting operations
