Clipper Wind Turbine Demolition
Southwest Texas
O’Rourke Wrecking Company has experience in explosive demolition. Implosion is a cost-effective way to demolish urban high-rise structures without causing damage to surrounding areas when site conditions allow for it. Implosion uses a carefully planned sequence of charges to cause the structure to collapse into its footprint. This type of controlled demolition requires careful panning based on the use of engineering through 3-D modeling. This in-depth look at the building’s structure predicts the behavior of all the structural components including reinforced, pre-cast, and post-tensioned concrete, masonry, steel beam, truss systems, and external glazing. This is necessary to assess and mitigate the vulnerability of the structure and risk during implosion.
With over 60 years of experience and dedication to excellence, we are confident we will meet all your demolition needs. Our team of experienced demolition specialists has the expertise needed to handle even the most challenging implosion projects.

Implosion services can become effective for larger structures, such as bridges, high-rise buildings, and industrial structures. However, implosion is not limited to these types of projects alone. Our demolition contractors can also use implosion methods for post-tensioned structures, wind turbines, and smokestacks as well.
There are benefits of using implosion over other types of demolition work. These advantages include the following:
