Nuclear Decommissioning

In 2008, Northwest Demolition was selected to demolish the Trojan Nuclear Plant Containment Building, the largest structure of its type demolished in the U.S. Using a custom engineered method the structure was demolished in a choreographed sequence, while constantly providing seismic monitoring to ensure the safety of the stored nuclear fuel located several hundred feet away. Our radiological resume includes:

• Reactor containment building demolition
• Spent fuel pool liner removal method analysis consulting
• Plutonium waste landfill cap repair
• Implosion of radiologically impacted building at Hanford Nuclear reservation
