What is it you're wondering?
It's about 100 mm of concrete and reinforcement. So get an engine cutter and diamond blade and get to it.
Remember to cut a few cm so you don't have to struggle with it when you're placing them with the excavator or equivalent.

The actual cutting is probably a piece of cake but it won't turn out well. They will most likely give in. There are corner supports and they are significantly reinforced with more rebar and larger feet.
There are ready-made ones that are angled for corners. https://www.benders.se/sortiment/in...stod-horn/?model=2871007a#goto-artnr-2871007a I've installed such corners. Once, I had to cut a straight L-support into a corner due to a delivery error. It's not easy with a handheld concrete saw to cut 45 degrees neatly, but it turned out reasonably well and was placed in a spot that wasn't directly in view. I wasn't really satisfied, but the customer thought it was acceptable and approved the work. The customer was given two options: 1. to pay for/fetch a new L-support (the customer had ordered the L-supports themselves). 2. we attempt to cut a straight support into a corner support. So the conclusion is, yes, it's possible but not very easy...
Wondering if it will be good. Thought about measuring one that's originally cut at an angle and cutting based on that.R Robin Wahlman said:
Okay Do you think there's much difference? I think those with corners look the same.C Carbonara84 said:
Yep, was thinking more about if they fit corner to corner and will fill up with mass and probably won't be visible either from inside or outside. Heard some people weld them together, however that works.wildeside said:
Then I wonder if anyone has experience with lifting L-stöden with, for example, a hoist, but has anyone seen a type of stand for the hoist?
Are you planning to cut the entire support (i.e., all the way up), or just the bottom? That support should weigh about 1.5-2 tons, right? Don't try to lift it by yourself, get help from a real machine. It hurts both your wallet and your body to drop it.
Yes no, just at the bottom so I can join them at 90 degrees. I only thought to lift about 10 cm so I can move them. They weigh 1440kg.P PatrikJo said:
So you're looking for a rolling scaffold that can handle 1.5 tons on uneven ground?
If you make a few calls, you can find someone who will lift that on-site for a few thousand. That way, you won't have to worry about how to lift it and avoid the risk of you or someone else getting flattened.

Do you want to be sure it turns out well?
Or do you just want them there for appearances' sake?

"The actual cutting is probably a piece of cake, but it's not going to turn out well. They will most likely give way. There are corner supports, and they are properly reinforced with more rebar and larger feet."
It will definitely be significantly more expensive to replace the corner with cut L-supports than to do it right from the start, but maybe it's not your cost?
I would also claim it's a hidden defect (with cut L-supports), so the risk of having to pay even after the house is sold remains for 10 years...

Ideally, I'd prefer a frame type but with I-ballk that you can zig-zag the L-supports. That way, you move them a bit at a time and we're talking about 3-4 meters. I lift such weights every day at work, so I'm not worried about that part. Sure, you could probably get someone to place them for a cheap penny, but it would be fun to fix it myself.P PatrikJo said:
Yes, I need to place them correctly, and it concerns my place. I have looked at similar ones with corners, but they have the same width, and I'm not sure why they would have reduced durability. I know of those who have cut down the height on them and where the supplier hasn't had any objections, and it's gone well. I guess I'll have to call them and find out.lunnabo said:
