DEMOLITION OF THE UTE LA ENCINA BRIDGES

This project involved the demolition of all underpasses and major structures, such as viaducts and overpasses. This job entailed overcoming many technical difficulties, as the bridge was located in a protected area and with many secondary and national highways with continuous traffic.

For this reason the job involved different processes from previous work, such as cutting sections to boards and pillars, lifting and removal of parts using heavy cranes, and direct demolition with backhoes and hydraulic demolition hammers. The material left over from the demolition was then processed, separating the steel and concrete and recycling both residues.
