The company was contracted by a general contractor to perform interior demolition at a large warehouse. The scope of the work was to remove approximately 40,000 square feet of steel shelving that was three levels in height from floor to ceiling. This was accomplished by skilled laborers using gas torches. The company also provided a water truck and hose to provide ample fire protection. A fire watch was also maintained.
The shelving was cut into small, manageable pieces and then removed through the pedestrian doors at the side and rear of the warehouse.
The amount of scrap metal recycled allowed Dallas Contracting to offset a substantial amount of the demolition costs, according to a news release.
