Ashbridges Bay Wastewater Treatment Plant –
Our expert engineers provided innovative solutions for the partial demolition of the Waste Heat Recovery (WHR) and Incinerator Buildings within an active plant. This complex project required a carefully engineered demolition plan to ensure a safe structural separation from the portions of the building that were to remain, while preserving the structural integrity of the surrounding facilities. Our team developed detailed plans and procedures for the contractor, including a precise demolition sequence, hoisting and rigging details for large steel beams, equipment loading guidelines for the floors, and a protection plan for the existing slab on piles, which will serve as the foundation for
future construction.
