The Demolition Contractors that CDI offers utilize the highest level of calculated precision to bring down structures without risking people or damage to surrounding buildings, structures and property. The process of controlled demolition begins with a comprehensive planning and preparation phase. Highly experienced demolition engineers create a plan specifying the placement and sequence of explosive charges, targeting key support elements of the structure to ensure the most effective and efficient collapse.

The team then clears the area and prepares the demolition site. Depending on the structure, this may involve removing internal walls, drilling holes for explosives placement and even wrapping columns with fabric prior to firing the explosions that will bring down the building. When a structure is ready, the charges are detonated, the structure comes down and the demolition crew begins to remove debris and debris cleanup activities are completed with an eye on environmental responsibility and efficiency.

The Importance of Safety in Controlled Demolition Services

Throughout the demolition, the safety of demolition crew members is paramount. Aside from ensuring that all employees wear the appropriate equipment and adhere to all safety protocols, demolition professionals use mechanical solutions such as shears instead of burning through materials with hand-held breakers or cranes equipped with a wrecking ball to reduce heat and fire hazards on a job site. Using demolition robots to perform shear work eliminates the need for human intervention, eliminating heat-related accidents that can occur when cutting or crushing concrete, and makes electrical lines easier to avoid by not having to touch them with hands.
