Will a Combi Drill work for Drilling into Monoblock Driveway?

[Homervanderjazz]

I need to install something using shield anchor bolts on a monoblock driveway. I only have a Dewalt 18v combi hammer drill. Will this be able to drill the 12mm holes required? Thanks

If you are going to be making more that a couple of holes, I'd be looking to use something with a cable.

I would work up in size, easier on you and the drill.

what's being anchored down? Will a Monoblock drive cope?

It’s a parking post, we have an area for residents to park with allocated spaces. Due to our location we get a lot of randoms trying to park there so most people are now installing parking posts.

So long as no one hits it, in which case it will just fall over.

It's going to take a while - and a few batteries

I would plan not to get too close to the edge of a block, shield anchors exert quite a bit of expansive force if you dog them up

You need to remove a few blocks, dig it out, fill of concrete and then install your post you don’t need a drill , you can drop the bolts in before concrete sets
