Video – Clemson House crumbles…

CDI chalks up another text book blast.

Hundreds gathered on the Clemson University campus on Sunday morning to witness the explosive end of the Clemson House accommodation block.

Neuber Demolition and Environmental Services worked for the last several months to clear the building of its windows, interior partitions, stairwells and other materials that could potentially fly out of the exclusion zone set up around the demolition site, Doud said.

Seismic tests were also conducted to determine any effect the explosions would have on the integrity of surrounding structures, and an exclusion zone was set up to protect people nearby from dust, debris and the loudness of the explosions.

Last week, Controlled Demolition came in and drilled nearly 500 holes on the ground, third and fifth floors, which they filled with explosives used in the implosion.
