The internal soft strip often identifies unexpected aspects of the buildings structural design. Quite often when a building needs to be refurbished for existing or change of use purposes it’s also important to consider potential hazards that may be concealed within the fabrics of the building. Such hazards will need to be addressed first with a professional and practical approach.
This allows for practical solutions to the removal of all finished surfaces resulting in the building being returned to its original shell.
Internal demolition activities normally follow on from the strip out process which includes the removal of temporary floors and ceilings, non-load bearing partitions, mechanical and electrical (M&E) systems including lighting, cables, cable trays, heating, ventilation systems etc.
The internal strip out works could be that of a segregated area of a building that is being refurbished or perhaps the entire building to facilitate remodelling work.
Once the asbestos survey has been completed and known ACMs are removed, we will then organise making safe all of mechanical and electrical supplies which will be affected as part of the works.
