Lantmännen has hired NKR Demolition Sweden AB to demolish the grain towers in principle in order of magnitude with the low red as the starting building. Preparations / establishment will begin this week and internal demolition is expected to begin next week. - Lantmännen has several previous experiences of demolishing silos and NKR has the majority of tall buildings among its previous demolition assignments, says Micke Folke, manager at Lantmännen Fastigheter. The safety requirements for the demolition of, above all, the two tall silo buildings (the tallest is about 60m high) are rigorous and the design will be with a ball down to about 10m. Then you use a so-called "mower". Safety is guaranteed through clear roadblocks around the area. In addition, sand and gravel piles are placed around the buildings so that concrete and stone do not bounce off uncontrolled outside the barriers. The fact that the schedule is not 100% determined is due to the safety aspects and the demolition work may be delayed until the summer of 2016. - We must secure the working environment for those who are currently working to strengthen the quay. In addition, the quay renovation is necessary to reduce these weights that the silos constitute. But the demolition must not take time and slow down the project to develop the port, says Peter Elenfalk, property manager at Norrtälje municipality.
