1. Deconstruct UK case study for Emergency Dangerous
Structures.
Client: Linbrooks
Location: Enfield Sony Centre
Contractor: Deconstruct UK Ltd
Completion Date: August 2011
Sector: Emergency Dangerous Structure

2. About the Project:
Deconstruct called to support the London Fire
Brigade to extinguish this substantial warehouse fire
following disturbances in Enfield.
Following a massive fire this structure continued to
smoulder for almost three weeks.
Due to the nature of the content of the warehouse and the
fact the structure collapsed into itself, it prevented access
for London Fire Brigade (LFB) to extinguish the flame.
Deconstruct provided specialist equipment to move
collapsed structures, enabling LFB to access and douse the
remaining hotspots.

3. Project Challenges:
The removal of fundamental elements of the
structure to enable LFB access into the heart of
the 200m x 100m warehouse was key.
These works were carried out by 25 and 45 tonne
excavators with specialist attachments.
The works had to be coordinated with the LFB
incident controller and involved accessing the heart
of the site, removing structural elements and then
retracting to permit safe LFB access.
These works took two weeks to complete.
