City Road, London
777 Demolition have been contracted by Leslie Clark Construction Consultants to demolish a 4 storey office block with a roof top boiler room situated at City Road, Islington, London .
The Building has been scaffolded on all elevations due to its location.
777 Environmental have carried out the removal of Asbestos within the building and the soft strip has been completed.
The underground car park of the block is to remain as it still contains the main EDF Substation for the local area and will be propped by a Maybey System designed by our Structural Engineer to enable work by 360? machines.
This building is approx 300mm away from a newly opened development (Groveworld Limited) which means the first phase of the demolition needs to be done by hand , Top Down.
This is currently underway after negotiations with Groveworld Management to resolve any party wall issues. Once the first two bays ( 20m ) have been demolished a 360? machine will take over the next phase
Brokks are being used to hammer the floor slabs and ring beams cleared by Bobcats through an internal rubbish chute formed by a Brokk. All metal/wood is being separated at source to return back to Beddington Lane for recycling. Works are progressing to programme with approximately two weeks to complete the first phase of the Demolition works.
