Induced collapse demolition

Liberty Industrial executes the mechanically induced demolition of large industrial structures and industrial infrastructure such as power station turbine halls, refinery infrastructure, coal bins, conveyors, chimney stack and communications towers.

This involves a carefully designed and calculated sequence of structural pre-weakening methodologies, followed by the application of sufficient force to induce a controlled collapse. The sequencing may include the pulling out of structural columns or connecting high-capacity steel pull ropes to the pre-weakened structure and generating enough horizontal force to enable the structure to rotate and collapse over itself.

Dismantling and asset recovery

We realise maximum value from a wide range of reusable plant, process equipment and scrap materials. We also have an extensive network of asset resale and resource recovery partners to negotiate the sale of unwanted or disused assets.

We provide all facets of the chain of custody to facilitate the process of logistics for packaging, transporting and shipping of assets and ensuring structures are easily match marked for reconstruction.

Resource recovery and recycling

Decommissioning, in essence adheres with the principles of the circular economy, removing redundant infrastructure and upcycling or recycling 95-98% of the materials into new products and materials for return into the supply chain.

We take a resourceful and innovative approach to project delivery, ensuring waste is managed responsibly and sustainably. We have established a national network of waste recovery and recycling resources to ensure we optimise salvage and recovery value to deliver positive commercial outcomes for all. This includes

  • Processing and recycling
  • Segregation and salvage
  • Resale and reuse options

Rope access solutions

As a safe alternative for working at heights, Rope access is a flexible, cost-effective and efficient method of accessing difficult locations without the use of scaffolding, cranes or elevated work platforms. A twin rope access system is ideal for accessing hazardous and confined spaces often present in industrial environments with minimum disruption.

Liberty Industrial has a fully qualified and experienced in-house rope access team. They are trained and certified in confined space entry and friable asbestos removal and hold tickets for various types of high-risk work.
