My Papa worked in construction for sometime, but passed away when I was quite young. So I have no one to go to for information on how to make, install or fix things. Videos like these are a God-send. Thank you, MAN the House. ❤

Hi, i have a question. When i drill my wall, i think i hit on the beam. My question is do i change the drill bit to the metal type drill or can i just carry on using the masonry bit?

I've had difficulties drilling desired depths into the concrete HDB flat ceilings. One out of four holes went almost as deep as I wanted, while the others had progress completely stop at varying depths (some very shallow). Tried two different drills (Bosch GSB 16 RE, borrowed a different one) using fresh masonry bits. They had no trouble with the walls, just the ceiling. Could I be unlucky enough to hit rebar in a few places?

@ThePunggolHandyMan Жыл бұрын

The Bosch GSB16RE is a impact drill. It does not do well against reinforced concrete. You need a rotary hammer drill which is a radically different machine.

@BrianBickerton Жыл бұрын

@@ThePunggolHandyMan Thanks for the reply! That's disappointing to hear. The hardware store said this one would work well for both HDB concrete walls and ceilings. It drilled holes quickly in the walls, and one or two holes went smoothly in the ceiling (while the others got stuck at different depths). Are there more dense spots in the ceiling concrete that it's not powerful enough to overcome?

@ThePunggolHandyMan Жыл бұрын

@@BrianBickerton there are varying grades of concrete. Some HDB walls are made of very thin precast concrete which is softer than floors and beams which have to be load bearing

How big a crack? Can be many factors but one may be that the drill bit is too big. Try piloting a 5mm hole first

Hi, I'm planning to mount my 65" TV. 1) should I be using anchor bolt for the mounting bracket or normal plug will do. 2) the rotary hammer drill that you are using, will it be able to drill through a concrete wall with beam? You know some hdb wall which which is indicated as black thick line on a floorplan. Thank you

@ThePunggolHandyMan Жыл бұрын

1. use wall anchors. Usually the bracket will come with anchors. 2. Yes it can punch through beams. Hdb ceiling is reinforced concrete 3. Please get a proper company to do the mounting for you. You spent thousands on a nice TV. No need to save the hundred. They are insured and warrantied so if anything happens you are protected.

What is the total weight those two screws would safely hold?

@ThePunggolHandyMan Жыл бұрын

It all depends on many factors -size of hole drilled - size of plug - material drilled (stone / wood /concrete - type of screw used. - the direction of pull - safety factor - static versus dynamic loading Even If it takes 50kg to pull the plug out I wouldn't put 50kg on the plug I'll use a safety factor of 10x so I'll only put 5kg on it. But that is preference. If I need something more robust I'll use anchors. But this video is more on how to drill.

@califoo Жыл бұрын

@@ThePunggolHandyMan Thanks. I understand there are a bunch of factors. With the two holes you drilled in the video, how much weight would you be comfortable hanging? Don't worry, I'm not going to hang something really heavy, just looking for a real world example using the same screw size in the video.
