Different Demolition Types
Demolition is the opposite of construction. It is the process of tearing down architectural structures like houses and buildings. Demolition comes in different types. The method of demolition to be employed for a particular architectural structure depends on various factors. These factors include the exact location and the environment where the structure stands, the material it is made of, the purpose of demolition and the manner how the debris will be settled.? Below are the various demolition techniques.

Implosion. This demolition technique involves a violent inward bursting that causes the tearing down of the major structural supports and foundation of the property. This kind of demolition method is often used in destroying large structures situated in urban areas.

High Reach Excavator. The use of high reach excavator is recommended in demolishing tall buildings which are inappropriate to tear down through implosion. High reach excavators use suitable attachable equipment to destroy different kinds of structural material. For instance, these excavators use hydraulic hammers to smash concrete structures.

Crane and Ball. The use of crane and ball in knocking down structures is considered as one of the oldest mechanical demolition techniques. The wrecking ball used in this technique weighs 13,500 pounds and it is proven to tear down even the most durable concrete structures by either dropping or swinging it against the part to be demolished. Though proven to be effective, this demolition type produces high level of vibrations and noise.

Deconstruction or Selective Demolition. This technique is considered as the most environmental-friendly demolition process. In this method, the demolition team deconstructs the structure slowly and carefully in order to secure parts and materials that could still be reused. Some of the construction materials that could be reuse are metals, bricks, wood and concrete. This kind of demolition technique takes time.
