Define the wall opening and retained structure
Send a current drawing with width, height and location. Explain what the opening is for and distinguish the boundary to be removed from surrounding concrete. Identify the project designer or engineer responsible for unresolved structural questions.
Show access to both work faces
Show the cutting face, the working area and the route used to reach it. Include floor levels and available access to the other side where relevant. Mark nearby services and share any investigation already held by the project team.
Allocate support, lifting and section removal
Clarify who arranges support, lifting and removal of the cut material. State whether the cutting enquiry includes those tasks or only the separation cuts. Handling requirements should inform the overall package rather than being assumed after the cut layout is agreed.
Agree the opening handover
Identify what the following trade needs and which party makes good the area. Tell the office about the work window, occupied spaces and site coordination. Final method and attendance depend on scope review and confirmed availability.
Your enquiry checklist
- Current opening drawing and dimensions
- Retained structure and services information
- Access to the work faces
- Support, lifting, removal and handover responsibilities
Send what you know and identify details still being confirmed. These guides help describe a project; the agreed site-specific scope determines the work.
