Atlantic Concrete Cutting was contracted to saw through a 38" diameter heat exchanger pipe. The pipe was made with two 3/4" thick walls and was filled with 782 3/4" diameter bronze pipes. Atlantic set up a diamond wire sawing system on the floor above the pipe and arranged pulleys to guide the wire to saw from the top of the pipe down. This work was being done in preparation for removing the pipe.
