Traditionally the demo waste material would have to be hauled downstream and discarded.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-3018\" src=\"https:\/\/www.attachmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/img1a.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"197\" height=\"350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.attachmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/img1a.jpg 197w, https:\/\/www.attachmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/img1a-169x300.jpg 169w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 197px) 100vw, 197px\" \/>Solution: they used a BF60.1 MB mobile crusher to process the material and use it as road base for the surrounding paths. How did they bring it to the lodge when a helicopter can only carry a max of 1200 kg (2,645 lb)? A few of the crusher bucket\u2019s heavier components were removed and then reassembled quickly on site.<\/p>\n<p>Results: significant savings on both waste disposal and hauling fees, reuse of the resulting material directly on site.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2.

Compact and agile machines were required to work on the roof of the building to demolish it one floor at a time. The demo waste was then tossed down a hole that was opened in the center of the building, to protect the surrounding area.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-3020\" src=\"https:\/\/www.attachmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Japan2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"350\" height=\"262\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.attachmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Japan2.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.attachmart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Japan2-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/>Solution: they chose a BF70.2 MB mobile crusher that processed reinforced concrete in a narrow space. The cherry on top? The crusher bucket was lifted to the sixteenth floor with a crane: thanks to the unit\u2019s size and weight this task was very easy.<\/p>\n<p>Results: material hauling time saved, and significant reduction of dust and sound emissions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3.
