Demolition of the warehouse – 13 Grand Ave, Camellia

Perfect Contracting was contracted by CPB Downer to undertake demolition works at 13 Grand Ave, Camellia.

Prior to commencing with any works semi permanent fencing was set up for the demolition work site and all services disconnected. Safety signage put up around the job site and all road, pedestrian and neighbour traffic taken into consideration.

For this project we had to remove a tree on the west side front of building, taking approximately 2 days to remove. Demolition works commenced with the removal of hazardous waste materials from within the building, safely removing and disposing of all non/friable asbestos waste. As well as removal of lead paint as per the hazmat report. Air monitoring and clearance certificated were provided.

Internat strip out of the warehouse started as soon as all hazardous waste was removed, removing any rubbish that cannot be recycled. Including ceilings, joinery and loose furniture in the property. Full demolition of the building then took place using 8T- 30T excavators. The building was taken down safely using the 24T excavator with shears butting the steel columns, demolishing the base slab, ramps, hardstand and the roof. There was a labourer on site hosing down the building to suppress the dust.

All materials were separated accordingly to top at the correct recycling centres. Loading out all rubble into Perfect designated tip and hook trucks and skip bins. There was a ticketed demolition supervisor on site at all times observing all works. Demolition works went over the course of 4 weeks and works were completed successfully.
