The Problem: Steel Frames Require Surgical Removal, Not Brute Force
Steel structures — warehouses, factories, aircraft hangars, and portal frame sheds — are engineered systems where every bolted connection and welded joint contributes to overall stability. Cutting the wrong member first can trigger progressive collapse, injuring workers and destroying salvageable materials. Unlike concrete demolition, where crushing is the norm, steel dismantling requires unbolting, flame cutting, and controlled lowering of large sections. In Dubai, many industrial areas like Al Quoz, Ras Al Khor, and Jebel Ali are dense with active facilities. A falling steel truss can damage neighboring operations and shut down an entire industrial zone. Dismantling steel also requires crane planning, rigging design, and load calculations that standard demolition contractors often ignore.
Our Steel Structure Dismantling Process
Equipment & Capability
Our steel dismantling fleet includes 50-ton to 100-ton mobile cranes, oxy-acetylene and plasma cutting rigs, hydraulic bolt cutters for seized connections, and flatbed trailers for steel transport. Our rigging team holds DM-approved lifting certifications.
Compliance & Safety
Steel dismantling falls under DM structural works and UAE lifting regulations. Every lift over 1 ton requires a lift plan signed by a competent person. We conduct daily crane inspections, maintain exclusion zones beneath lifted loads, and use tag lines to control load swing. All workers wear fall protection when working at height on steel frames.
Proof: Warehouse Dismantling in Al Quoz
In 2025, Al Mrooj dismantled a 3,000 square meter steel portal frame warehouse in Al Quoz Industrial Area. The structure was located 6 meters from an active logistics facility. We used a 70-ton mobile crane to lower 18-meter roof trusses individually, then unbolted the portal columns. The entire frame was dismantled in 9 working days with zero damage to the neighboring facility. 95 tons of steel were recovered and sent for recycling.
