We check for the variety of material used in the building construction, how long or short the building has been in usage, the design of the building, the types of things in the building, the ecological consequences of the demolition on the neighboring buildings, and so on.

Building Demolition

Structure demolition refers to to destroy, raze down, or knock down a structure. Such actions can be done for various reasons. A structure can be demolished because it has passed its useful life, for building a larger structure, to introduce new additions to some part of the structure, or should the owner wants to sell the land vacant of any structure. Nonetheless, proper building demolition is considerably more intricate than that, as each structure has its unique needs that have to be thoroughly and correctly met for a successful and safe demolition process.

Commercial Demolition

Commercial Demolition involves the tearing down of commercial buildings such as hotels, factories, stores, office buildings and so on Commercial demolition takes place for various reasons such as owners wanting to add more business areas, restructuring, rebuilding and so on. The structure of the building will determine the type of demolition process to be applied
Also, since it is a commercial structure it is most likely to be in a public area, therefore it becomes imperative to inform the neighboring buildings of what is about to be done. Also barricades should be made to prevent pedestrians from working into the demolition area. At JP Express Demolition, we ensure that the demolition process of your commercial building is done perfectly. We ensure that all the necessary licenses and safety measures are put in place. Also, we carry out the commercial demolition process in a cost effective way that will ensure that some of the materials used for the building construction is still reusable.

Interior Demolition

Interior deconstruction as the name implies refers to the demolition of only the interior elements or structure in a building without touching the exterior. In most cases, the exterior structure of a building is still in good shape while the interior isn't. In situations like this, instead of whole demolition, the best and most cost-effective measure is to demolish just only the interior part of the building. Also, interior demolition can be done for purposes such as creation of new spaces, repair of damages, or space remodeling. It usually involves activities such as wall removal, ceiling removal, flooring, furniture removal (i.e., cabinets), electrical works, and so on. One might think that this is a simple task that you can easily do with a group of handy friends or members of your family. This is a very wrong approach, as this type of demolition process can be rather tricky, as unnecessary/silly mistakes could lead to partial structural demolition of the building or the demolition of the whole building. You could even break laws without knowing that you are. This is why it is always safe to work with professionals such as JP Express.

Safety First

Demolition Technique

We make use of two major demolition methods and they are:

  • Non Explosive demolition method
  • Controlled demolition process
  • Non- Explosive Demolition Method

    In this process, we make use of just machineries and hand tools such as Sledge hammers, Excavators, and earthmovers e.t.c. This type of Demolition method is appropriate for demolishing minor to medium sized structures.

  • Implosive Demolition Method

    This method, as the name implies, makes use of explosives to bring down the building. This method is used mostly for skyscraper buildings. This works by making the structure weak through the explosives, which will then weaken the building and make it collapse. This process can be done in two different approaches. The first way is to make the building “Fall like a tree,” which means the building is made to topple sideways. While the second way is to make the building implode upon itself, that is, to crumble inwards.

Safety Measures and Regulations in Demolition

Despite its many benefits, the demolition process can be quite risky if the proper and appropriate safe practices and regulations aren't adhered to. A demolition project is prone to various dangers such as falling from heights, coming in contact with hazardous materials, equipment or machinery failure, environmental risk and so on.

All these can be very unsafe for staff on the site as it may cause them to be seriously injured and in worst-case scenarios lead to casualties.

Having an comprehensive awareness of the demolition process and all the risks that come with it will enable one to know how to avoid these risks and to also know how to best handle them if and when they occur.

It becomes imperative to work with professionals like JP Express demolition for a protected demolition process where all the necessary demolition safety precautions and regulations will be applied. We have put together 10 demolition safety precautions and regulations that we follow for all of our projects. They are:

 

  • Site Survey:

    Firstly, we do a detailed survey of the site we are to carry out the demolition project. This thorough survey will give us an insight into the sort of building we are to deal with, the structure of the building, the types of materials used in constructing the building, hazardous materials that may be on the site and so on. All these will help us in knowing the most suitable approach to take for the safe and successful demolition process.

  • Planning

    Next is planning, we use the data gathered from our thorough site survey to plan for precautionary measures and regulations to be taken all through the project. Planning enables us to know the sort of machinery and equipment to bring along, the secure demolition technique for different types of building, how best to avoid danger and how best to control it if it should happen.

  • Use of Technology

    By taking advantage of what technology has to offer, we are able to provide our workers with the latest and appropriate equipment that will ensure their safety on site. The right equipment is used for the right projects and not the other way round. Equipment is provided to meet the specific needs of each project.

  • Following OSHA( Occupational Safety Health Administration) Regulations:

    OSHA has a set of rules and regulations guiding demolition projects to guide the safety of workers. We are well aware of all these rules and we ensure to follow them everytime, and so also do our workers.

  • Limit Traffic Movement

    Another important safety precaution we follow is limiting traffic movement. Doing this will limit the rate at which workers bump into each other while working, which could lead to accidents. This step is a part of the planning process which is enforced on site.
    Also, we put up segregations and signs to prevent pedestrians and vehicles from wandering into the demolition site unhindered.

  • Obtainment of Mandatory Permits:

    We understand that there are different laws and regulations guiding the demolition projects in various cities and states. Therefore, before embarking on any demolition projects, we ensure to get the needed permits from government agencies be it Local, State or Federal agencies.

  • Professionally Trained Staffs:

    We make sure to employ only competent staff members. We understand the danger that an unqualified worker can pose for himself, his co-workers, and the entire project as a whole. Our staff members are properly trained and up to date on the latest trends in the industry. They are also aware of the safety measures and precautions to take when carrying out a demolition project and also the steps to take in the case of an emergency.

     

  • Use of PPE (Personal Protective Equipment):

    All workers on the demolition site are provided with the latest personal protective equipment that fits the type of project that is being carried out. They are also well trained on how to use them for their utmost well-being.

  • Keeping Track of The Weather Condition

    We always put the weather condition into consideration before we begin work on any project. Weather conditions can have a large impact on how well a demolition process can go as bad weather conditions can cause danger on a site.

    For example, windy weather can cause objects, dust and debrises to fly around the site which could cause harm for the workers and the neighboring community. Also, rainy weather can increase the risk of fall, slips and collapse. All these can be easily avoided by having a awareness of how favorable or unfavorable the weather condition will be that day or during the duration of the project

  • Waste Disposal

    At JP Express demolition, after carrying out demolition projects, we do not just leave the site looking unkempt. We ensure that the site is cleared up and we salvage the materials used in constructing the building for recycling.

    In conclusion, demolition projects can be very risky if the proper safety precautions and regulations are not adhered to. Therefore, it is of paramount importance to work with a demolition company like JP Express demolition which has years of experience and expertise.

Environmental Impacts of Demolition and Sustainable Practices

Over time, proponents of environmental well-being have highlighted the often underestimated adverse consequences of demolition, a pivotal aspect of the construction industry. Thankfully, both governmental bodies and individuals are now more conscious of these issues and are approaching them with heightened seriousness. Some of the damaging effects that demolition can inflict on our environment consist of:

Waste Production

Waste Production:

Waste Generation is a significant problem posed by the demolition industry in our society. Depending on the project's size, it can result in hundreds of thousands of tons of debris. Disposing of this waste can span several months, and the decomposition process can endure for years. All these aspects contribute to environmental pollution, endangering the well-being of both humans and animals.

Natural Disaster:

Particular demolition methods, like the implosive approach, possess the potential to initiate natural disasters such as earthquakes. This arises from the sudden vibrations caused by the abrupt collapse of a sizable structure, which can trigger seismic activity.

Air Pollution:

During a building demolition, there's typically an overflow of dust, noise, smoke, and odors, often resulting in unpleasant smells and disturbing sounds, causing inconvenience to nearby residents.

Detrimental Health Effects:

Yet another detrimental result of demolition is the possibility of hazardous gas leaks occurring throughout the process. These leaks can have adverse effects on health, especially for people with respiratory issues, heightening the risks they already face.
