Road Saw is a concrete saw which is a tool used for cutting the concrete, brick, tile, marble or other solid material. This tool comes in several sizes. It could be a small and hand-held saw for cutting which is very convenient to use and is generally used for cutting the tiles and other purposes. There are also large walk-behind saw which are mainly used while constructing a house or office or other large buildings and they are generally powered by fuels like gasoline, hydraulic or electric motors. There is one interesting thing to note is that the saw blade used on for concrete cutting riverside are generally diamond saw blades.

There is a large friction generated while cutting these hard solids and therefore it is very important to cool down these blades which increase their life and reduce the dust generated while cutting the concrete. Choosing a good diamond blade saw for concrete and stone cutting is essential to perform the cutting task well. There are several points to be kept in mind while choosing an appropriate diamond blade saw for cutting. There are some concretes which have steel bars in them while some do not have it. Some concrete are made of crushed stones and pebbles while others are made of solid rocks. Therefore it is really necessary to different designs of diamond blade saw which accurately fits these concretes and perform the cutting task well.

The diamond blade saw are usually used for wet cutting. Because if the diamond blades are used without sufficient supply of water, then the diamond blade may break and then the segment could fly out which could hurt the operator and the people around. So if there not sufficient supply of water then the operator must use sharper diamond blades and he must keep the fact in mind that in case of limited supply of water the blades must be used for shallow cutting of solid material only and not for deep cutting. Generally, before starting the process of cutting a concrete the operator must check the cutting speed of the blade and thus he can choose that blade which has high cutting speed. If the horsepower of concrete saw is high then the diamond of the blade will have larger impact and therefore in this case the bonds of the diamond should be harder.

Cutting of stones, rocks and clays produces large amount of airborne dust whose particles are so small that its particles are not visible in normal lighting. Exposure to these particles of dust can cause lung cancer due to deep penetration of these fine particles into the lungs. Therefore several steps can be taken to control these dust particles. First, using diamond saw blades instead of abrasive saw blades because diamond saw blades usually have much higher cutting speed. Second, adopt wet cutting using sufficient supply of water while cutting. And it must be ensured that the operator wears a protective equipment so that the particles do not enter his body much.
