Demolition Services

About Demolition Services

Demolition services include the destruction and cleanup of buildings, sitework, roadwork and other installations. To safely demolish a structure, demolition services must carefully map each site element. First, they review the architectural plans for information about structural supports and connections. Next, a crew tours the area and examines the support structure in detail. Based on this analysis, demolition experts then select which equipment and explosives (if any) to use. In some cases, blasting crews develop three-dimensional (3D) computer models to ensure that structures collapse in a predictable manner. In the case of a building on a city block, for example, demolition services may also secure steel cables to support columns.
