Prior to the start of any project, the scope of work is reviewed and verified with the owner or the general contractor to insure proper progress of the project. In addition, locations of all utilities are confirmed and verified for deactivation.

During all demolition projects, pre-start and weekly safety meetings are held with workers to continually remind all staff of the need for safety on the project. Supervisors are required to perform daily “walk-throughs” to check for any potential hazards including jobsite cleanliness to provide for additional safety and security.

Prior to completing the project, the project is reviewed again with the owner or the general contractor to verify the completeness of the project and also confirm that the expectations have been met.

BENDCO considers the safety assurance and satisfaction of the owner/general contractor to be of utmost importance and will continue to work towards that goal by diligently improving our work procedures and safety requirements of the project. Critiques of our performance is always sought to aid in the improvement of our work procedures.

SITE DEMOLITION AND REMOVAL

Concrete structures, high-rise buildings, highway bridges and overpasses, commercial buildings, residential units, and steel structures have been demolished by the staff of BENDCO over the past 30 years. Experienced and knowledgeable staff will safely remove structures out of the way for new improvements to be built.

Every demolition and removal project is unique and has its own potential hazard. Through research and planning, a complete safety plan is developed for every demolition project to be undertaken, potential hazards are examined and steps taken to avoid injury to workers and the general public including dust control, drainage control, demolition safety, and health hazard analysis.

BENDCO staff members have attended the demolition safety course, OSHA safety course, and Industrial First Aid and CPR training. Monthly supervisor’s and weekly safety meetings are held to refresh the staff on safety gear and procedures and also to discuss any safety issues. BENDCO believes that knowledge is the key to maintaining a safe environment.
