Project Synopsis:

Demtech carried out the controlled explosive demolition of four towering concrete chimneys at the James River Power Station in Springfield, Missouri. The structures included three stacks measuring 280 feet tall and one significantly larger 440-foot chimney. This complex removal required careful engineering and precise execution to maintain safety and operational continuity at the active LNG power generation site less than 200 feet away.
