Project Overview

Atlas Demolition, a leading commercial demolition contractor in North Carolina, was selected to perform precise concrete cutting and coring for a commercial selective demolition project in Downtown Matthews, NC. Working closely with a general contractor, Atlas aimed to adhere to a strict project timeline and budget while minimizing disruptions to neighboring businesses and tenants.

Challenges

• Coordinating with multiple trades to maintain the project timeline while operating within strict financial limits required efficient resource management and meticulous planning.
• The demolition site was directly attached to other buildings, raising concerns about noise, construction traffic, and the potential for tenant complaints.
• Managing equipment and vehicle storage in a confined area without obstructing access for other trades necessitated strategic organization and traffic management.

Solutions

• Developed a detailed project timeline in collaboration with the general contractor and implemented cost-effective demolition techniques to ensure the project stayed on schedule and within budget.
• Scheduled high-noise activities during off-peak hours, maintained a clean and organized work area, and strategically parked vehicles away from the site to minimize disruptions to neighboring tenants and reduce traffic congestion.
• Utilized specialized concrete saws for precise cutting and coring, ensuring minimal impact on surrounding structures and maintaining the structural integrity necessary for the seamless continuation of the renovation project.

Results

Atlas Demolition completed the commercial selective demolition project on time and within budget, allowing subsequent trades to proceed smoothly. Minimal noise and traffic disruptions preserved good relationships with neighboring tenants, while precise concrete cutting and coring maintained the building’s structural integrity.
