Plasma Cutting

The scope is to plasma cut approximately 6746 starter bars (final figure to be specified by the Contractor). There are 300 contiguous piles within Euston Scissor Box which will be exposed at base slab level. The Contractor expects the starter bars for these piles will need to be trimmed to avoid clashes with base slab reinforcement.
