Project Summary
This project, in advance of the construction of a new hospital, involved the removal of asbestos and lead-containing materials at a former hotel and nine-story commercial building located at the site. The scope of work included removal of various asbestos materials that were found in walls, ceilings, and flooring mastics and sealants. A portion of the scope included removing the exterior asbestos siding and windows. Bayview performed this scope by using exterior swing-stage scaffolding, which was installed at strategic locations. We worked our way around the building, removing the siding system as we went. The siding was then handed into the building, where a crew packaged the waste for transport down the elevator to a loading point located on the first floor. At the completion of our work, the buildings were left as skeleton structures for the demolition to be performed.
