Gary Eastmen, currently the President of the International Chimney Committee, CCIND, is giving a talk at the IDE Spring Seminar in Leeds on March 5th.
The title of the talk is "Innovative Demolition of a 180m chimney with the Bierrum “Spider”"
Gary will cover the Spider demolition tool and the following work in his talk:
In 2006, Rugeley Power commenced the design and construction of a Flue Gas Desulphurisation installation at their Rugeley Power Station. The project involved the construction of a new 180m high chimney. The existing chimney needed to be demolished but it was situated very close to existing and new plant and the client specified that no material was allowed to fall outside the chimney.
Rugeley Power contracted with Bierrum International Ltd to use their “Spider” demolition system to ensure the safe and speedy removal of the structure without the need for expensive protection works to the surrounding equipment.
