Glasgow collapse – Update

We exclusively reported on the uncontrolled demolition collapse that took place in Glasgow yesterday. Now, more details are beginning to emerge.

The demolition work was being undertaken by National Federation of Demolition Contractors member company, Paisley-based Bardem using a high reach excavator on hire from AW Demolition.

Eyewitnesses reported hearing a loud “crack” just before the building crashed down, spilling debris and dust. Eyewitnesses also told DemolitionNews that a new AW Demolition van was one of two vehicles damaged by falling debris.

DemolitionNews understands that Bardem worked with the fire brigade last night to make the building safe. We also believe that Health and Safety Executive inspectors visited the site earlier today.

DemolitionNews reached out to Bardem but they declined to comment.

Exclusive – The fresh face of explosive demolition

20 years ago, a three-year old boy pressed the button to initiate the explosive demolition of a bridge in Manchester. It was an experience he clearly found inspiring, because that boy has now returned to buy the company that carried out the blast.

In this EXCLUSIVE broadcast, we catch up with young Cormac McLean and with the ever-youthful Robyn Rushforth for a look at the past, present and the future of explosive demolition.
