Borgess Hospital
Limited access and accessibility called for Diamond’s robotic demolition to safely and effectively remove five concrete decks and balconies.
Spartan Stadium at MSU
Over 7,000 linear feet in front of Spartan Stadium at Michigan State University was scanned with GPR to identify utilities before excavation for repairs.

River House Condominiums
To avoid damage during necessary design changes at River House Condominiums in Grand Rapids, MI, Diamond was brought in for their GPR services to locate and map all post tension cables.

American Electric Power (AEP)
Small ground water leaks needed to be repaired at AEP’s Cook Nuclear power plant in Bridgman, MI. GPR was utilized to map all reinforcements and conduits to drawings as required by regulators before work could begin.

Basin Electric Power
For the installation of a new coal feeding system, Basic Electric Power put Diamond to work wire sawing an opening measuring 15.5 feet x 19.3 feet through six feet of concrete flooring.
Devere Construction Company
When two structures shared seven concrete pillars that were 50 feet tall and three feet thick, Devere Construction used Diamond’s wire sawing skills to demolish one building without damaging the other.

Grand River Bridge
Without letting any slurry or debris fall into the river below, Slagter Construction counted on Diamond to replace a bridge barrier rail and concrete deck, as well as repair portions of the bridge’s steel structure.

Ship Builder
Diamond was subcontracted to help Northrop Grumman Ship Systems expand their facility to handle increasingly larger builds. Diamond’s work required slab sawing the concrete and steel rail system they used to move ship components around during construction in only five days.

Notre Dame Stadium
The wall surrounding the stands at Notre Dame stadium needed to be anchored, which required
Diamond to core drill 230 holes around the perimeter of the football field.
Superior Asphalt
Superior Asphalt pulled Diamond in to cut over 1,000 linear feet of curb per day to meet a tight schedule in Mississippi. Diamond also assisted with sawing 30,000 additional feet of 10 inch thick concrete roadway.
