Fulham F.C.
The work
Client: Buckingham Group.
Services delivered: Asbestos Removal.

Fulham Football Club has redeveloped its Riverside Stand that sits on the River Thames increasing the capacity of Craven Cottage to 30,000. To facilitate this redevelopment we were commissioned to carry out asbestos removal to the undercroft running the entire length of the original Riverside Stand. This undercroft was contaminated and contained sprayed asbestos debris mixed within the soil that was present around support columns, trenches and above the original concrete terracing that sat beneath the existing stand.
Beams that supported the original stand also contained sprayed residues beneath the existing fire protection and also required removal. Works were phased around match days and functions and some phases included out-of-hours shifts to ensure work could be completed on time.
Kingsnorth Power Station, Kent

Kingsnorth Power Station was built between 1963 and 1973 on the northern bank of the Medway Estuary, a few kilometres downstream of Rochester and Chatham. When commissioned, its 4 units supplied 2GW to the UK grid by coal or oil and ceased generation in 2012 as a result of the EU’s large combustion plant directive. Brown and Mason were appointed to demolish the site and instructed AA Woods to assist them in removing large amounts of hardset asbestos insulation, silica block and contaminated MMMF via needle injection to high level ductwork, boilers and precipitators within the main Boiler House pre-demolition.
Enclosures were formed utilising shrink wrap protective sheeting for extra stability and large bespoke scaffolding with built-in hoists to assist with waste transfer and to reduce manual handling. Works were fast track to ensure key demolition (explosive) dates were met without compromising safety. On completion 4,000 tonnes of asbestos containing materials were removed.
