100m Service Duct Project an Enormous Success

After a successful tender stage, Core Environmental where appointed to carry out the removal and re-instatement of 1400m of hardset Asbestos pipe insulation within a 100m Service Duct. The client required the project to be completed within a 10 week heating shutdown programme (8 weeks removal, 2weeks re-instatement).

Core Environmental developed a bespoke programme of works which involved the Service Duct being segregated into two phased areas allowing re-instatement works to 50℅ of the Service Duct to be undertaken 3 weeks earlier than anticipated.

The removal process was carried out using a controlled wetting system, approximately 7,500 litres of a 10-1 dust suppressant and water mix was injected into the Asbestos pipe insulation, in excess of 3000 bags of asbestos waste was removed during the contracts duration.

Upon completion of the removal works Core Environmental applied a 6mm resin floor screed to the complete length of the Service Duct prior to re-insulating the pipework.

The project was completed to programme and to budget, we would like to thank all employees involved for their hard work and contribution in making the project an enormous success and a contract that the company can be proud of.

Project – Gable End walls
Sector   – Manufacturing
Service – Asbestos Removal

Removal of AIB and cement gable ends to occupied manufacturing factory

The works carried out involved the removal of two gable end walls which were fabricated from AIB wall panels (internal) and cement sheets (external). The work required completing in a five week period and had to be undertaken in a manner that would allow the daily running operations of the factory to continue.

A purpose built three tier scaffold was erected to both the internal and external side of the gable ends to enable enclosures to be formed. Monoflex weather proof sheeting was applied to the external areas of scaffolding to protect against the outdoor elements. Approximately 600sqm of AIB and cement sheets were removed using controlled wetting techniques.

The whole project was delivered on schedule and to budget with no disruption to the client’s manufacturing operations, another job well done, a credit to all those involved with the project.
