How Pros Handle Hazardous Materials: ACM Abatement Demo + Safety Breakdown

Описание: Join Abatement Contractors of Montana (ACM) president Mike Faus and General Manager Chris Reinhart as they walk through the hazardous materials removal process at Building T-150, a structure slated for full demolition. In this detailed walkthrough, Mike and Chris break down how ACM identifies and safely removes asbestos, lead, transite siding, window glazing, asbestos pipe insulation, and structural hazards before demo work begins.

You’ll learn how to recognize transite siding, what “alligatoring” in lead-based paint looks like, why glazing contains asbestos, and how hidden materials inside walls, ceilings, and old construction methods can easily be missed by untrained inspectors. ACM also explains containment zones, 10-foot safety barriers, PPE requirements, fall arrest systems, and why attention to detail is the most important part of professional abatement.

In this video, ACM covers:
• How asbestos pipe insulation is wrapped, cut, and contained
• How to identify lead paint through surface cracking & “alligatoring”
• Why window glazing often contains asbestos
• How containment zones and demarcated areas are set up for worker safety
• Hidden hazards behind ceilings, false walls, and collapsed structures
• Why attention to detail prevents costly re-work
• The importance of full PPE: suits, respirators, fall arrest, hard hats & high-vis
• Why ACM starts at one end of a building and follows through methodically
• How improper staging forces a second setup—doubling cost and time
