Structural Dismantling

Nova Dismantling

Controlled dismantling of steel and industrial structures.

Overview

What Nova Dismantling covers

Nova Dismantling takes down redundant steel-framed buildings, silos, conveyors and industrial structures in a controlled, sequenced way. We plan the dismantle, recover what's reusable and clear the site ready for the next phase.

Controlled dismantling is the opposite of demolition. Instead of pulling a structure down, we take it apart in reverse erection sequence — cutting, slinging and lowering each piece with a crane, then segregating it on the ground for resale or recycling.

This approach is the only safe option for tower cranes, silos and steel frames inside live yards or near sensitive plant.
