The Rescue Company held its monthly drill last Tuesday, emphasizing concrete breaking, breaching, and anchor installation for lifting. Members acquired knowledge on distinguishing clean from dirty cuts, drilling techniques, anchor setting, stitch cuts, and effective use of cutoff saws with concrete blades. A one-hour tabletop discussion preceded practical demonstrations, discussing cement and concrete properties, rebar locations and cutting techniques, as well as stabilization and cribbing. Inspection core holes for audio/visual access were simulated prior to breaching. Step cuts were demonstrated once scenarios were complete. New members are always welcome.
