Project Details
North American Dismantling surgically removed specified buildings/units
at the Bayer New Martinsville Plant while working in close proximity
of other Major Chemical Units that were to REMAIN. Prior to North
American Dismantling mobilizing onsite an extensive F.B.I. background
check for every employee and Subcontractor employee were completed
per the Bayer Corporation requirements. Among the demolished units
were the Reformer, HCL, MDA I, MDA II, MR I and MR II units. These
specific units were labeled as chemical and physical hazards on
the project and North American Dismantling obtained the proper awareness
training and necessary PPE required for working in all areas.
The buildings/units consisted of various process equipment, piping,
platforms, and vessels. Included in the scope of work were the removal
and recycling of all exterior concrete and asphalt associated with
the specific building/unit totaling over 200,000 square feet of
hard surfacing. In addition to the original contract, North American
Dismantling completed the removal of the Polycarbonate Building
which consisted of a 4-story steel structure with block walls and
concrete floors. This particular structure was approximately 75,000
square feet and approximately 65’0” in height. This
building was adjacent to a structure which was to REMAIN and to
be protected during the demolition operations.
North American Dismantling was responsible for crushing all non-hazardous
concrete, mortar, bricks, and brick concrete and used the material
to backfill the affected areas to the original pre-demolition elevations.
At the completion of the work, North American Dismantling graded
and covered all affected areas with a 3” thick layer of limestone
throughout the entire site to complete the project.
The building demolition consisted of:
Removal of approximately 200,000 square feet of buildings/units
and foundations spread across a 200 acre site.
- Removal of the Polycarbonate Building which consisted
of approximately 75,000 square feet and 65’-0” tall
steel structure.
- Processing of 10,000 cubic yards of demolition
hardfill to 21AA specifications;
- Processing over 11,000 Tons of Ferrous Material;
- Processing over 320,000 lbs of Non-Ferrous;
The site work consisted of:
- Preparing and instituting Site Specific
Seismic Monitoring Plan; Transportation Plan; Fugitive Dust Control
Plan; and a Hazardous Communication Plan;
- Removal of over 200,000 square feet of hard surfacing
including concrete and asphalt drives, fencing, guard rail, bumpers
and bollards;
- Processing of 10,000 cubic yards of demolition
hardfill to a 21AA specification;
North American Dismantling completed this project within its specified
budget and 4 months ahead of its anticipated completion.
