Yes, corten beams can be cut using different methods which depend on its thickness and size. Some common methods are:
- Plasma cutting- A plasma torch generates a high-temperature, ionized gas that melts and cuts through the metal.
- Laser cutting- A high-powered laser beam is focused on the material, vaporizing and cutting through it.
- Oxy-fuel cutting- Uses a mixture of oxygen and fuel gas to heat and melt the corten steel.
- Saw cutting- Here a rotating blade cuts through the material.
- Waterjet cutting- A high-pressure stream of water mixed with an abrasive material to cut through the High Strength Weathering Steel beams.
