East side roof structure removal. |
|
Dining area before demo. |
We just love putting our containers close. Our beautiful
generator is in the background. |
|
East side ready for new tower. |
We had to strip the soffits. |
|
The restroom roof structure removal is done. |
All done on the west side. |
|
Ready for a small tower above the drive-thru. |
Sure . . . let's block 3rd Avenue . . . |
|
The dining mezzanine neatly stripped. |
The floor was stoutly built for two ceramic tile layers and 2"
of concrete. |
|
It was manually demolished stick by stick. The steel beam
required "hydraulic" assistance to remove |
With a little rigging . . . |
|
. . . the beam came right out . . . |
. . . with the help of the general contractor's cherry reach
forklift. |
|
In the tight quarters we positioned our Volvo, . . . |
. . . rolled off the flatbed, then loaded the beam and some
really nice salvaged floor joists. |
|
The V.P. moonlights as an expert operator. |
Matt carefully separates the stairs from the wall. |
|
But who will load the debris? |
The Brokk 150 assumes menacing posture. |
|
CMU ready for sawcutting. |
Two fresh openings.
|
|
Still some floor tile to chip off. |
Sometimes it's easier to just do things the old-school way.
|
|
Other contractors were jealous of our van trailer. |
