Demolition of Gas Turbine House.
Utilising our significant experience of working in high hazard environments, GCM brought their skills and expertise to safely demolish a turbine house within the gas reduction area of Provan Gas Works.
Various cold cutting technologies were adopted to undertake the works including the use of spitzna saws, Halmatro hydraulic jaw cutters and excavator mounted hydraulic shears. Due to the strict site control measures for the area, we used our own plant which are all equipped with spark arrestor and chalwyn valve, making them safe for use in explosive environments.
The main turbine internal to the building was reduced down in sections for removal and the building carefully demolished. GCM designed the methodology to ensure that all waste streams were segregated to maximise the amount of material recycled. The large diameter feed pipework located in front of the building was cold cut and backfilled to make safe.
Another successful project delivered for a repeat client. The works were carried out safely, on time and within budget. The area was left with minimal trip hazards and will form the platform for future development at the site.
