University of Alabama: Tutwiler Hall Abatement and Demolition
University of Alabama: Tutwiler Hall Abatement and Demolition
D.H. Griffin Wrecking Company began discussions with the University of Alabama for the demolition of the Tutwiler Hall dormitory after successfully imploding its sister dorm, Rose Towers, on July 4, 2012. The Tutwiler was a 13-story, 270,000-square-foot concrete women’s residence hall on the campus of the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. It was built in 1966 to house freshmen female students, as it did until 2022. Over the years, it also housed many different summer camp students, not leaving much unoccupied time for the university to make upgrades. Being the successful low bidder on the Tutwiler project, DHG immediately began discussions with the University of Alabama on planning for the set implosion date of July 4, 2022. Due to classes beginning in early August, the debris from this implosion would have to be removed by July 30.

Elevance Health-Richmond, VA
Elevance Health-Richmond, VA
DARI Richmond was selected as the selective demolition subcontractor for the Elevance Health (formerly Anthem) second and third floor restack project in Richmond, VA. The project was a relative breakthrough for DARI Richmond with a newer client in HITT Contracting. DARI was tasked with removing all interior finishes back to the structure while protecting the raised floor system that was to remain. The project had its challenges as the project schedule only allowed six weeks and the General Contractor was unable to get the material hoist erected for three weeks after our start date. Our team shined as they formulated a plan to start on time, work safely while staging demolished materials in an orderly fashion, and keep the necessary production rates to keep the job on schedule for the client. The DARI team successfully completed the 90,000 square foot project on time and under budget.
