Controlled Glazing Removal Commences

Glazing Refurbishment's Specialist Demolition Division have commenced with the controlled removal of multiple glazed concourses to one of London's busiest train stations.

Conducting the multiple glass removals, our operatives commenced with the removal of the bracing tie rods and transported down to ground level for disposal. Utilising the Spider Crane with manipulator head, our operatives connected the suction lifter to the external face of the glazing. When the glass section was secure, our operatives then commenced with the raking out and removal of all existing weather seals between the glass panels. Once removed, our operatives then conducted the installation of isolation to the perimeter of the glass edges to ensure that surrounding panels are protected from glass to glass contact during movement. The system patch fittings were then removed from the system and transported to ground level. In total our operative removed over 100 glass panels.

These removal works are the starting part of the first phase of a multi-million pound refurbishment project to the station
