\"PP<\/a><\/div>\n

Strip-out is the most destructive phase on any refurbishment, and the surfaces that survive it are usually the ones that were deliberately protected: the floor being kept, the lift, the stair and the route to the skip. This article looks at protection during strip-out and demolition. The focus is debris, impact and keeping a safe route through a destructive phase.<\/p>\n

In strip-out, protection is about what stays<\/h2>\n

Unlike fit-out, where everything is new, strip-out has a short list of things worth protecting: retained floors, lift cars, stairs and the route out. Protecting those is what keeps the next phase on programme.<\/p>\n

A rigid PP honeycomb protection board<\/a><\/a> resists impact and puncture from debris better than a film or sheet, and it stays in place while materials are dragged over it.<\/p>\n

Because the panels are re-usable, the same boards can be moved from the strip-out route into the fit-out route once the phase changes.<\/p>\n

Thickness choices from 2 mm to 12 mm<\/h2>\n

Strip-out involves dropped debris and dragged materials, so the middle to upper part of the 2 mm to 12 mm range is normally appropriate.<\/p>\n

For pedestrian routes through a strip-out area a mid thickness is enough. Where debris is dropped or materials are dragged, thicker boards resist puncture and spreading impact.<\/p>\n

Debris management and route discipline<\/h2>\n

Sweep the protected route regularly. Debris left on panels becomes grit that is then ground into the floor underneath when the panel flexes.<\/p>\n

Keep the route clear and signed, and separate it from the debris removal path wherever possible, because the two create different risks.<\/p>\n

Inspect panels for puncture and retire damaged ones, since a punctured panel no longer protects against the next drop.<\/p>\n

How honeycomb board compares with ply, offcuts and sheeting<\/h2>\n

Plywood is the usual strip-out protection and works, but it is heavy, splinters and absorbs water from wet demolition work.<\/p>\n

Plastic sheeting is cheap but punctures and slides exactly when it is needed most, and it creates a trip hazard in a debris-strewn area.<\/p>\n

Timber offcuts are inconsistent and often contaminated. A PP honeycomb board gives known performance, is light enough to reposition as the works progress and can be reused in the next phase.<\/p>\n

A practical trial plan for strip-out<\/h2>\n

Protect the retained route and leave a comparable section on the current method. Inspect at the end of each day, recording punctures, impact damage and any floor damage.<\/p>\n

Run a drop test with representative debris onto a sample panel, then check the floor underneath.<\/p>\n

Record how many panels survived the phase, because that tells you what can be carried into the fit-out rather than re-purchased.<\/p>\n

What to include in a protection board enquiry<\/h2>\n

State what is being stripped, what is being retained, the route layout and whether wet demolition is involved. Ask for the recommended thickness for impact and puncture resistance.<\/p>\n

Ask for guidance on inspection and retirement criteria, on cleaning between phases and about custom sizes for standard corridor routes.<\/p>\n

Final takeaway<\/h3>\n

Protect the short list of retained surfaces and the route out. Use the thick end of the range under debris, sweep grit off the panels and retire punctured boards.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
