As generating stations throughout North America age, managers and nuclear contractors are turning to accelerated maintenance, renewal and decommissioning programs. CTI’s skill in demolishing heavily reinforced structures has played an integral role in many of these efforts. Our broad experience includes such nuclear tasks as decommissioning, commodity removal, head and reactor vessel replacement and SGRO projects.

CTI’s in-house engineering staff develops cutting sequence and rigging plans that reduce demo time to achieve your critical path objectives quickly. We offer 24-hour response time for emergencies, and our safety-trained crew balances a rapid work effort with safe, contamination-free performance.
