The Fisher Building demolition project involved the demolition of an 8 level building situated in South Australias largest university campus.

  • Removal of sprayed asbestos and vermiculite insulation to structural steel and slab soffit. This contamination existed on 3 upper levels of the 2 building, comprising an area of over 1400m².
  • The demolition of an 8 level building. The top 3 levels consisting of concrete and structural steel and the lower levels being concrete reinforced.

The constraints placed on the demolition and asbestos removal included:

  • Removal of asbestos adjacent an active demolition area.
  • Demolition of an 8-level structure adjacent two new buildings, the closest of the two being only 2.8 metres away.
  • Protection scaffolding and filtration of main air conditioning intakes to the new mathematics building.
  • Working within a very confined site area and minimising the impact of the work on the existing activities taking place at the University.
  • Liaising with University and Royal Adelaide Hospital over noise management as both facilities run 24 hrs a day, 7 days a week.
