The challenge
Inside a 50 m chimney, loose brickwork or liner fragments can fall at any time. Before any work at the base could continue, the flue had to be inspected and the risk of falling debris controlled.
The job combined confined space entry with work at height inside the flue.
Scope of works
- Confined space entry with permits, gas monitoring and standby rescue
- Internal visual inspection of the flue walls, brickwork and liner
- Design, anchorage and installation of safety nets inside the chimney
- Load testing of anchor points and handover
Outcome
The chimney interior was assessed and the safety nets installed, protecting everyone working below. Find out more about our industrial chimney services or see a safety net installation in Kosovo.
