ZERO HARM THROUGH ZERO TOLERANCE
2. About the Project:
Deconstruct were contracted to demolish the adjoining office building at Carlisle Street
and strip the St Anne’s Court building back to shell and core.
Asbestos was present throughout both properties and had to be completely removed
prior to demolition and strip out.
The majority of the asbestos was asbestos insulation board (AIB) located behind the
acoustic panelling within the basement recording studios.
ZERO HARM THROUGH ZERO TOLERANCE
3. Project Challenges:
With the asbestos insulation board being located behind the acoustic panelling, it was
necessary to incorporate the removal of the panelling within the asbestos removal
operation.
Deconstruct asbestos removal teams had to deconstruct 6 layers of acoustic boarding
and panelling to access and remove the asbestos.
The fixings and fittings that secured the acoustic panelling, passed through the asbestos
and had to be carefully removed, to avoid uncontrolled damage to the asbestos.
A considerable amount of contaminated waste was generated from these works. The
waste needed to be carefully transferred from the basement working area, to ground
floor level, for collection on a ‘wait and load’ basis.
The waste transfer process was was a very labour intensive operation.
