BMC Demolition was tasked with the strategic demolition of the Long Term Carpark Block at Melbourne Airport, Tullamarine. This high-profile project required precision and careful coordination to minimise disruption to one of Australia’s busiest airports.
Project Scope:
- Client: Private Owner
- Location: Tullamarine
- Building Type: Multi-level carpark block
- Duration: 3 Days
- Completion Date: 5th September
Challenges:
Given the nature of the site, the project came with its own set of logistical and operational challenges:
- Operational Airport: The demolition was conducted within an active airport environment, necessitating the highest levels of safety and coordination with airport authorities.
- Minimizing Disruption: The project had to be executed with minimal impact on daily airport operations, including passenger traffic and airport services.
- Restricted Work Hours: Due to the constant flow of passengers, much of the work was carried out during restricted hours to avoid peak traffic times.
Our Approach:
BMC Demolition’s expert team brought their A-game to ensure the smooth, safe, and timely execution of the project:
- Safety Protocols: Extensive safety measures were in place, including close cooperation with Melbourne Airport’s operational teams to ensure compliance with strict regulations.
- Advanced Technology: The use of advanced demolition machinery and techniques allowed us to carefully dismantle the structure while controlling dust, noise, and vibrations.
- Environmental Impact: We implemented a robust waste management system, diverting significant materials from landfill through recycling and salvage operations.
Outcome:
The demolition of the Melbourne Airport Long Term Carpark Block was completed successfully, on time, and within budget. The project was a testament to BMC Demolition’s ability to handle complex, high-security demolition tasks while maintaining our core values of safety, precision, and sustainability.
