Heavy Industrial
The O’ Brien Group has over 30 years experience in the demolition and dismantling of heavy industrial Units. During this period we have acquired the knowledge and understanding of operating in this high risk environment where safety management is of paramount importance.
Examples of the complex projects we have undertaken include:
- Collieries
- Shipyards
- Foundries
- Power Stations
- Mills
- Multi-storey concrete buildings
- Steel and concrete chimneys
- Manufacturing plants
- Chemical/ Pharmaceutical facilities
- High rise steel structures
- Factory buildings
- Heavy reinforced concrete structures
- Process plants
- Tank Farms
- Breweries
Some of the methods we have used to carry out the demolition/dismantling of the industrial structures include:
- Hand demolition
- Flame cutting
- Remote demolition including high reach
- Explosives
- Controlled pulling techniques
- Crane lifts
We believe that no matter what the complexity of the project we have the experience and competency to manage it from beginning to end.
