Ron Hull Title Bar fade
Project: Asbestos Removal and Demolition of Wakefield Waste Centre
Client: Kier
Location: Wakefield, West Yorkshire
Date: January 2014 - March 2015

As a result of competitive tender, Ron Hull Demolition were employed to execute the Wakefield Waste project, strengthening our ever growing relationship with Kier. 

The project consisted of the removal of all asbestos containing materials as per survey reports provided, internal strip out, demolition down to 1000mm below building slab levels, crush arisings on site and backfill voids/basements with the demolition arisings. 

Works commenced at the start of the year with the specialist Asbestos Removal team working safely to ensure the tight programme was kept to, with soft strip starting immediately after all Asbestos Containing Materials were removed from the structure. 

After meticulous planning from the RHD Management and Site Team, the excavators were able to move in for the Demolition phase of the project. The Main Building was constructed of steel beams with metal sheet cladding to the sides and roof area with a central core block work, 3 storey element with central staircase. Once this had been demolished using excavator and overhead crane, RHD moved onto the office unit which comprised of a brick structure with concrete column beams and roof. 

All brick and block work was crushed on site, and any other materials were sorted into skips and sent back to the Ron Hull Group Recycling Centre in Rotherham.

The project was completed within budget on time and most importantly without incident.
