Structure Support is Critical on Demolition Projects

Wall and structural support - Rigging and Demolition

Supporting a structure is a critical part of many interior demolition, selective demolition, and dismantling projects. Proper shoring and bracing require an experienced demolition contractor that has a thorough understanding of physics, cause-and-effect, and how buildings are constructed. The materials used for shoring and bracing must be appropriately sized and placed to ensure that breaks and collapses won’t happen. These can include beams, knee bracing, posts, timbers, and various other 

Well-planned demolition projects usually follow a specific project plan that outlines any shoring and bracing that will be required as work progresses. Floors, walls, ceilings, roofs, and mechanical piping and equipment may need support as columns, bearing walls, and other critical structural elements are removed. All shoring and bracing must be properly fastened or tethered to prevent slipping, racking, or kicking out when weight is shifted. These supports can be quite large, often requiring delivery via flatbed trucks and installation using Bobcats, lulls, forklifts, and other tools and equipment. 

With nearly 90 years of experience in dismantling, demolition, and rigging, R. Baker & Son has an exemplary safety record and we are consummate experts in ensuring that every structure is properly supported on every project.
