Η Demolition of a building is a demanding process that requires careful planning, expertise and the use of appropriate equipment. Choosing the right demolition method is critical to safety, efficiency and regulatory compliance.

In this article, we will analyze what the main demolition methods are and the factors that influence their choice.

Basic Demolition Methods

  1. Mechanical Demolition.
    The most common method, suitable for small to medium-sized buildings. Special equipment is used, such as excavators, hydraulic calipers, hammers and demolition shears.
  • Advantages:
    • Fast and economical process.
    • Good batch management.
  • When it is indicated:
    • In buildings without proximity to sensitive structures.
  1. Demolition with Explosives.
    A specialized method for large or multi-storey buildings where complete and rapid demolition is required. Careful planning is done to ensure a controlled collapse of the building.
  • Advantages:
    • Speed ​​to completion.
    • Minimum intervention time in the project.
  • When it is indicated:
    • In large industrial or commercial structures.
  1. Gradual Detachment
    It is about the slow and gradual dismantling of the building. It is the safest choice for projects in densely populated areas.
  • Advantages:
    • Minimize noise and dust.
    • Security for neighboring structures.
  • When it is indicated:
    • In areas with restrictions due to proximity or sensitive structures.

Factors influencing the choice of method

  • The size and structure of the building. A high-rise building requires a different approach than a small single-family house.
  • The location of the project. In densely populated areas, gradual stripping is usually preferable.
  • The condition of the building. If the building contains hazardous materials (eg, asbestos), special management is required.
  • Time and Cost Constraints. Some methods are faster, while others are more economical.
