Demolition Process 3
Introduction
Demolition process of the low rise building is the practice that makes up the demolition,
dismantling, deconstruction, recycling, removal, transfer, reuse and disposal of the buildings and
theory components. The demolition procedure is how a building is gutted in the preparation of
the redevelopment or the reuse. This research paper analyses the stages and procedures needed to
perform the process of demolition.
Procedural manual and safe work practices
The site safety characteristics will emphasize the public protection, adjacent properties, vehicle
and pedestrian traffic. The registered engineer should make sure that the work is performed
safely and the personnel at the site is protected (Standards, 2015).
Structural principles that form part form demolition
process
Creating a plan: the first step in the process of demolition of a low rise building is to come up
with a plan. There are many methods of demolition depending on the building type, the materials
it is made of, the size of the building and the neighbouring structure. The creation of the plan
help to pick the method that is more safe, efficient, and cost-effective. After the plan is made, the
company of demolition can decide on the equipment types that will be needed, how much the
debris will be left, how long it will take to clean up etc. (Beyer, 2017).
Permits: the demolition of a building will change the entire landscape of the area, which can
have the impacts on the values and the taxes of a property on the area. The utilities like the gas
and electricity should be get rid of and also the hazardous materials (Cosper, 2015).
