EXIQUDE

Approach

Demolition is designed before it is executed.

Four demolition methods. Fall direction, vibration limits and exclusion zones are set before charging. This is the technical basis of our work.

Hinge geometry

Five degrees is a design, not luck.

At NTPC Kanti the shaft had forty metres to an ID fan. The hinge was cut so the chimney rotated into a five-degree corridor. Replay the schematic. That is the product.

01

Hinge-cut chimney felling

A designed hinge at the base dictates the fall. The shaft rotates into a corridor measured in degrees, not guesses — used on RCC stacks up to 256 m.

  1. 1Map ID fans, switchyards and live ducts within the radius.
  2. 2Cut and charge a hinge zone; protect the opposite face.
  3. 3Electronic detonation. The shaft rotates into the drawn corridor.

02

Designed collapse / implosion

Columns and shear walls are weakened in sequence so the mass falls into its own footprint. Urban towers, preheaters, halls.

  1. 1Strip non-structural mass. Protect neighbours.
  2. 2Sequence delays so the structure folds inward.
  3. 3Dust, fly-rock and vibration stay inside the plot.

03

Sequential hyperbolic felling

Natural-draft cooling towers are dropped on staggered millisecond delays so air-blast and ground vibration stay inside station limits — including four towers at once.

  1. 1Shell survey and fill-line mapping.
  2. 2Staggered initiation across the ring.
  3. 3Each shell seats in its own debris field.

04

Hybrid mechanical + non-explosive

When vibration budgets forbid blasting: remote robots, diamond wire, and non-explosive breaking against live kilns and crushers.

  1. 1Set a vibration ceiling from the plant.
  2. 2Robot or wire the structure in lifts.
  3. 3Hand the pad back with adjacent lines still running.

01

Site survey

Structural analysis, vibration-limit mapping, and a corridor study of every live asset within the fall radius.

02

Blast design

Custom charging patterns and millisecond delay sequences. Hinge geometry is drawn, not improvised.

03

Precision felling

Controlled takedown into a guaranteed corridor. Electronic detonators. Witnessed, filmed, signed off.

04

Site recovery

Immediate scrap sorting and handover so the plant — or the next contractor — can move the same day.
