Overview

In September 2013, Shield Asbestos Removals were contracted to carry out specialist fixed scaffolding for licensed asbestos works by Smiths Gloucester Ltd.

The project was the demolition of a disused warehouse in Tetbury, Gloucestershire. In order to remove AIB before demolition, Smiths required a specialist licensed contractor to build the asbestos scaffolding enclosure.

75m of scaffolding was erected across the internal elevation of the warehouse so that asbestos operatives could work at the right height to remove the AIB panelling.

The scaffolding project took two days to set up and one day to strike down.
