YMCA - Atlanta, GA

The project involves the complete demolition and removal of the former Jordan Hall building consisting of 60,051 SF of vertical improvements. The structure is concrete beams and columns with terra cotta flooring and exterior walls faced with brick. All structures are slab on grade with sidewalks, patios, and stoops also consisting of concrete. Our pricing includes only site items that touch the building. (sidewalks/stoops/steps that are in contact with the building being removed) Construction and Demolition waste will be disposed of at an EPA approved landfill. Prior to demolition, remediation of ACM's and universal waste will take place. It is assumed in a building of this age that bulbs and ballasts will contain Mercury and PCB's respectively and theses items will need to be treated with special care and disposed of appropriately. The plans call for the façade on the MLK Dr. and Walnut sides of the building to be seperated, shored and remain in place for new construction to tie in.

Long Reach Excavator demolishing Jordan Hall

Project Details

Demolition Process

Separation of the building along the MLK and Walnut Façade is anticipated to take 3-4 weeks. This portion of the project will involve the selective hammering, cutting, and chipping of items shored by others. We plan to demolish completely the roof, beams, columns, and flooring in the bay adjacent the façade. This phase can commence once abatement activities in that portion of the building are complete. This will allow some overlap in schedule. It would be our goal to have the façade separation complete with the abatement completion. After the utilities have been safely disconnected by others the vertical demolition and hauling can begin using heavy equipment. (50k-100k Class Excavators with Grapples, Pulverizers and Buckets). The vertical demolition and hauling phase is anticipated to take 4 weeks for completion. The hauling portion of this project is anticipated to create 9,600 Tons of C&D and Concrete. This material must be hauled and disposed of in compliance with all federal, state, and local laws at an EPA approved landfill. Once the vertical demolition has entered the fourth week the concrete slab/retaining wall demolition will begin. All slabs, footers, and foundations are included. All material will be hauled off-site to a recycling facility. Demolition of slabs, footers, foundations and retaining walls is anticipated to take 3 weeks. Foundations are assumed to be no deeper than 3'. If we encounter foundations more than 36'' deep, pricing is subject to change.

Asbestos Remediation Process

Asbestos remediation will be performed by Green Circle Environmental a GA-Licensed asbestos contractor, and a wholly owned subsidiary of Green Circle Demolition, in accordance with federal, state, and local regulations. Currently identified ACM's are summarized in a table below.

Green Circle completed my demolition project ahead of expectations. Their ability to utilize material recycling where appropriate, was a great factor in choosing Green Circle to complete this project.

From the initial meeting with Chris to demo completion, I can't say enough about Green Circle Demolition. Their customer service was top notch throughout the whole process. As a contractor I really appreciated the level of attention they provided and I would certainly recommend them to anyone looking for a quality demo company no matter the size project.

Chris Maier and team have provided excellent demo services for our firm during recent projects. In our most recent joint effort at the Cobb Linc Fueling Station, the guys from Green Circle have been very repsonsive and efficient in their efforts to help demo the old area for our team to be able to begin the process of building the new fueling systems. They did a great job!

Green Circle Demo thrives in the most strenuous situations in construction. When other companies cannot come through I call Chris and the team at GCD. They are professional and very detail oriented.

Green Circle just crushed a special demolition project for us with a tight timeline. They loaded the job up and knocked it out. We could not have been happier.

Awesome customer experience! That is not a statement that you typically associate with construction demolition, but that is exactly what you get with Green Circle. We had an urgent demo project in a Class A Building and Chris was able to facilitate a night demo for us. It was quick, easy, and painless. Could not have asked for anything more.

Green Circle did a wonderful job during phase 1 on my project. Their employees are always on time, professional and work hard to get the job done in a timely manner. I highly recommend Green Circle for full service demolition and abatement. I cant wait to continue to work with them on the remaining phases on this project.

We are confident that Green Circle Demolition can handle any demo big or small. We refer business to them for that reason through Chris Maier. Sharp gentleman. Chris always returns calls, follows procedures from the time he quotes the project, to pulling the permit, to the time the team start and ends demos. Another amazing thing is they recycle a ton of materials. Green circle is truly Green. High recommend this company!
