Face fitting of masks

Do you need to carry out face fitting of masks?

If so, do you want to do the fitting in house?

 

C&D are pleased to announce that they have a limited number of places available on the Qualitative face fitting course being run for Armac Demolition Limited which will, on completion, allow you to face fit your operatives rather than send them to fitting centres.

 

The course is running in Birmingham on the 25th October 2011 and will be morning or afternoon sessions at the discounted rate of £100.00 plus VAT per person.

 

Face fitting kits are available to purchase after the course from Speedy Hire at around £120.00 plus VAT per kit.

 

If you would like to take one of theses final places please email john.woodward@demolishdismantle.co.uk as soon as you can as the course is filling up fast.

Some things are just too good to demolish

Give Armac Demolition a building to demolish and they'll happily carry out the job. But sometimes a building has a section that is just too good to demolish, so rather than destroy it they try to save it by offering it for sale. The image above shows just one examply of this.

It's a stone porch that was built in 1899 and located at Pinderfields Hospital, Wakefiled near Leeds. It measures 5 x 4 x 4 meters and is available to buy by contacting Adrian McLean at Armac on 07836 332993.

The porch had already been sold to an American buyer, but the deal fell through. If you have the space, or know of someone who would like this porch on their grounds, then please get in touch with Adrian. Whatever price is paid, 50% will be given back to the hospital trust.

Gabor Prudencio becomes Trainee Site Engineer/Manager at Armac

Over the past few months our own John Woodward along with Duncan Rudall have been helping a very enthusiastic and highly talented civil engineer called Gabor Prudenceio from Bolivia follow his demolition dream.

In order to work in the UK demolition industry you need to have been awarded the CSCS Demolition Card. But in order to get that card you need to work in demolition. That caused a problem for Gabor, so John has been aiding him at every turn due to his sheer determination to follow his dream.

We are pleased to announce that the determination paid off and Gabor has now been appointed as a Trainee Site Engineer/Manager within Armac Group. That is just a first rung on the ladder and we expect Gabor to progress quickly due to his already wide skillset alongside a passion for demolition in general.

Armac Demolition prepare for Coventry Hospital chimney lift

Armac Demolition Limited prepare to carry out the removal of the boiler house chimney at Coventry Hospital.

The close proximity of the live hospital buildings determined that high reach and explosive methods were not an option, therefore Noel McLean AMIDE and Adrian Mclean MIDE decided to lift the chimney by crane.

This chimney demolition forms a small part of the Armac contract to demolish the former hospital and clear the site for Principal contractor Galliford Try and the hospital trust. Works are expected to run into early July.
