Concrete Coring – Scotland

THE PROJECT

The site was an existing retail outlet, which was to be redeveloped. Due to the store being open during the day, all intrusive work had to be undertaken during night time hours.

The work required drilling to obtain information on subfloor ground conditions. Additionally, there was suspected asbestos in the area of investigation, which required suitable mitigation and asbestos awareness training before work could commence.

THE SOLUTION

To obtain information on subfloor ground conditions without destroying the existing concrete floor, concrete coring was required.

All cores and sub-base were tested for asbestos, logged and placed back into the void to reinstate the concrete floor.

THE BENEFIT

Asbestos was not identified and the floor was re-instated to the satisfaction of the client.
