Concrete core drilling is the process of removing a circular, clean cylinder of concrete from the rest of the product. Since concrete is a very solid material, the process of core drilling is usually performed via a diamond core drill.
Various environments may have limiting factors, such as noise-sensitive spaces, e.g. schools, healthcare facilities, etc. In such situations, core drilling is preferred as it produces fewer vibrations and noise than traditional hammer drilling. The process is non-percussive, dust-free, and low-noise, so it’s not surprising why it is the most popular choice.
