Rescuers are responding by buying new cutting tools, that can create as much as 100K pounds of cutting force ( but they ain't cheap ), and having to learn where air bags and seat belt tensioners are hidden . ( Quinn, Atlanta Journal Constitution)

If we assume that the base of such a saw is very rigid, the force will flow from the pivot of the gearbox to the ball screw feed system in a closed loop, whereby the cutting force engages in the middle, approximately, between rotation point and ball screw.

To avoid chipping at the cutting edge, some tools made of such materials are finished with a sightly blunt edge, which results in higher cutting forces due to an increased shear area, however, tungsten carbide has the ability to attain a significantly sharper cutting edge than tooling steel for uses such as ultrasonic machining of composites.
