80 ft. High Concrete Mixing Plant Posed Challenges

80 foot vertical tower posed many challenge

 

This SPF spray job, in Cleveland, Ohio, was performed by Don Gibbins. The concrete mixing plant needed to stay warm inside year-round while trucks go in and out to fill-up with concrete. There were significant hurdles on this project to get various lifts to work around equipment while applying materials to the 80′ vertical walls. The job was accomplished successfully.

There were several challenges for this project. First, the staging of the electrical scaffolding for the 80 foot vertical installation had to be done right. Second, was controlling the humidity. Multiple, large fans were installed to decrease the humidity, which was monitored by humidity gauges.

Don Gibbins has been a spray foam applicator since 1975. Over the years, Don has had national and international experience as an SPF applicator which includes such faraway place as Mongolia!

 

         

Dizzying heights inside the concrete plant

The project required 30 sets of our GreenSeal-183 and 5 sets of GreenTech-283 on the roof exterior, along with 7 drums of our GreenTech Acrylic Coating-610.

Materials Used on this Project

• GreenSeal-183 for all interior walls (except the ceiling in the tower)
• Flame Control 60-60A Thermal Barrier/ Ignition Barrier coating for all interior walls over the GS-183.
• GreenTech-283 roof foam for exterior tower roof (80′ up).
• Acrylic Coating-610 applied over the roofing foam on the exterior tower roof.
