Just like a new building project requires extensive planning and analysis, demolition of a building or a structure also needs the same. First of all, there can be different reasons behind the need to demolish a building. For example, due to structure getting older, reconstruction or renovation requirements, new projects coming up in the same place, et cetera. Secondly, demolition planning is essential to ensure the safety and welfare of the public and workers. It is also to ensure neighbor-buildings and other properties do not come under any damage zone. Demolition engineers are responsible for looking after the planning and analysis of different stages of demolition with the help of Demolition Software. Yes! New construction projects are planned, designed with the help of software programs, so are the demolition of building projects. Let us discuss more.
Demolition Process and Use of Software Programs
A demolition process is not an easy task for sure. It requires great expertise and skills. Demolition engineers take responsibility to provide safe and economical demolition sequences for structures such as commercial buildings, bridges, or tower-blocks, et cetera. Their job includes:
- Conducting pre-demolition structural surveys.
- Recognizing potential risks and counseling on how to deal with pre-stressed and post-tensioned structures.
- Assistance in the preparation of risk assessments and method statements.
They take help from demolition Structural Analysis Software to calculate the strength of existing floors and advise on the size and type of demolition plant. They work on the demonstration by calculating the safety of a pre-weakened structure. Using such pre-engineered software programs helps experts to make this entire process effective, efficient, and error-free. They can quickly work over the projects ensuring 100% accurate results or outputs.
An advanced Non-Linear Structural Analysis tool, Extreme Loading® for Structures Software, is meant for structural engineers. It enables engineers to study the 3D behavior of structures via continuum and discrete stages of loading.
