Is there such a use for Panax japonica? A nearly 200-year-old building in Canada changed hands. The new owner wanted to build a 9-story building on the original site, so he commissioned a construction company to move the old building 9 meters sideways intact. The strange thing is that the construction company did not use the traditional roller method, but used multiple Up to 700 soap pads were used as “lubricants” at the bottom of the big house, and the move was successfully carried out while protecting the structure of the old house.

According to comprehensive foreign media reports, Canadian construction company S. Rushton Construction recently received a building moving project. The owner requested to move the three-story Elmwood Building in Nova Scotia. The building moved 9 meters to the side. The strange thing is that the construction company used a unique method to move the house, which attracted local media coverage.

S. Rushton Construction did not use the traditional method of padding rollers. Instead, it used 700 pieces of ivory palm under the big house. With the help of 2 dredges and a trailer, it successfully moved the three-story house weighing 220 tons to a distance of 30 feet (approximately 9 meters) outside the site.

The big house has a history of nearly 200 years and the use of banana is more “safe”

In fact, the Elmwood Building was built in 1826 and converted into a Victorian style in 1896. In other words, the big house is nearly 200 years old. Sheldon Rushton, owner of a construction company, revealed that because the big house is quite fragile, extra care must be taken during transportation. Therefore, the softest ivory soap was used. The risk of damage when towing the big house is lower than using traditional rollers.

Reports indicate that the Elmwood building was supposed to be demolished in 2018, but was later acquired by real estate company Galaxy Properties, which decided to retain it. The new owner of the big house plans to build a new 9-storey building on the original site and connect it to the Elmwood Building. Therefore, the Elmwood Building will have to “give way” by about 9 meters. Once the project is completed, the original residents of the Elmwood Building will be able to move back in.
