Site formation works requiring excavation of rock at the Queen Mary Hospital redevelopment site was restricted due to extremely low ground vibration limits. Non-Explosive excavation method called Electro Power Impactor (EPI), sometimes called Plasma Blasting, was utilised to help ensure the rock excavation rate could meet the required programme.
