We were delighted to get 2013 off to a great start by winning the contract to demolish four gasholders in Battersea, London, for National Grid. We’re looking forward to completing this high profile and complex contract in the heart of the capital within sight of the River Thames.
We recently took delivery of a new JCB 135 ‘Skid Steer Loader’. This compact and versatile piece of plant will help us complete the increasingly complex forms of demolition we undertake on contracts such as Birmingham New Street Station. We were particularly impressed with the 135’s health and safety features such as 270 degree operator visibility.
Paul Quance (Project Manager) and Chris Holland (Technical Manager) were recently invited to speak at an Institute of Demolition Engineers event. Their talk focused on MAN gasholder demolition procedures with our work at Grafton Street (Liverpool) and Jackson Street (St Helens) providing case studies on the day.
As part of our Tripe 50 celebrations David Coleman decided to share his “Demolition Diaries”. Over the first three months Dave’s Demolition Diaries has notched up over 2000 views and has received comments from interested readers based in the UK and overseas.
