Overview
Demolition of various Body Shops, including facilities at: Fort
Wayne, IN; Janesville, WI; Arlington, TX; and Lake Orion and Detroit
Hamtramck, MI
Owner: General Motors
Project Details
GMT 400 Body Shop: Fort Wayne, IN - General Motors
contracted North American Dismantling through its construction managers,
National Industrial Services, Inc. to complete the demolition of
approximately 225,000 sf of existing body shop and salvaging $800,000.00
worth of equipment, which had been previously sold in negotiated
sales.
North American Dismantling was responsible for all mechanical and
electrical disconnects, environmental cleaning and rigging, loading
and scheduling transportation of the salvaged equipment. Although
General Motors had scheduled this project for a five-month period,
North American Dismantling completed its work in fifteen calendar
days without any additional cost to the owner.
This fast tracked schedule allowed the owner to accelerate its
schedule for the installation of its new facilities. Also included
in North American Dismantling’s scope of work was the installation
of approximately 2,500-foot of plywood and visqueen wall around
the perimeter of the work area and the backfilling and concrete
replacement in pit areas generated by the demolition activities.
Obviously, this project was completed way ahead of the proposed
schedule with limited change orders and without interference to
plant production.
GMT 400 Body Shop: Janesville, WI - General Motors
contracted North American Dismantling through its construction managers,
National Industrial Services, Inc. to complete the demolition of
approximately 272,000 sf of existing body shop and salvaging $ 600,000.00
worth of equipment that had been previously sold in negotiated sales.
This project was the second of its kind completed by North American
Dismantling for NISI and GM in a year and a half period, the first
being the demolition of the 400 GMT Body Shop in Ft. Wayne, Indiana.
Again, North American Dismantling was responsible for all mechanical
and electrical disconnects, environmental cleaning and rigging,
loading and scheduling transportation of the salvaged equipment.
Although General Motors had scheduled this project for a four-week
period, North American Dismantling completed its work in fifteen
calendar days without any additional cost to the owner. This fast
tracked schedule allowed the owner to accelerate its schedule for
the installation of its new facilities. Also included in North American
Dismantling’s scope of work was the installation of 1000 sf
of plywood and visqueen wall around the perimeter of the work area
and the backfilling and concrete replacement in pit areas generated
by the demolition activities.
This project was completed ahead of the proposed schedule with
limited change orders and without interference to plant production.
GMT 400 Body Shop: Arlington, TX - In
a third of kind project, General Motors contracted North American
Dismantling through its construction managers, National Industrial
Services, Inc. to complete the demolition of approximately 4,000,000
sf of existing body shop and salvaging $800,000 worth of equipment
that had been previously sold in negotiated sales.
Again, NADC was responsible for all mechanical and electrical disconnects,
environmental cleaning and rigging, loading and scheduling transportation
of the salvaged equipment.
Although General Motors had scheduled this project for a four-week
period, NADC completed its work in fifteen calendar days without
any additional cost to the owner. This fast tracked schedule allowed
the owner to accelerate its schedule for the installation of its
new facilities.
Also included in North American Dismantling's scope-of-work was
the backfilling and concrete replacement in the pit areas created
as a result of the demolition activities. As with the previous two
projects, this project was completed ahead of the proposed schedule
with limited change orders and without interference to plant production.
Assembly Plants Body Shops: Lake Orion and Detroit Hamtramck,
MI - This project consisted of the change over of approximately
200,000 square feet of Body Shop at General Motors Corporation’s
Lake Orion and Detroit Hamtramck Assembly Plant respectively. North
American Dismantling was contracted by MIG/Alberici to complete
the selective demolition portion of the Body Shop renovation where
as MIG/Alberici completed the due care removal and salvage of the
equipment designated for reuse.
Because of the rigorous scheduling required on all projects of
this nature (24 hours per day seven days and week) North American
Dismantling worked strict conjunction with salvage operations preformed
by MIG/Alberici.
Under the original contract it was deemed all removed materials
would be separated and loaded by separate recycling contractor.
When it was determined that the recycling contractor could not maintain
the necessary scheduling, General Motors hired North American Dismantling
to furnish the necessary equipment and transportation to complete
this portion of the project and to perform additional major clean
up around the exterior of the plant. This project was completed
a week ahead of the proposed schedule
