Diamond bits are utilized in various geological
surveys, investigation for underground resources, and for dam
and tunnel construction, to name only a few. Their value to
society is immeasurable, making possible many of the modern
conveniences which society takes for granted.
Also, diamond tools are necessary to cut asphalt or concrete,
in order to install telephone lines and water, sewage, and
gas pipes. They are also used to cut grooves into roads and
runways to prevent slipping, as well as to demolish structures,
such as those used in earthquake-resistant construction projects,
bridge beams, highways, and nuclear power plants. |
