Stunning video captures the challenges of a three-month waterfront demolition project.
We just happened upon this brilliant video that captures the demanding demolition of San Francisco’s Pier 36 earlier this year.
Built in 1909, the original pier spanned two acres, comprised 18,500 tonnes of concrete and steel, and featured 437 concrete caissons.
Among the key challenges facing the demolition crew was ensuring that demolition debris didn’t fall into the Bay; a feat achieved by some very innovative equipment use.
