Currently, one often hears that building structures are being dismantled. What does this mean, and what is the specificity of this process? Let's figure it out.
Dismantling is the disassembly into components of any structures, individual parts of machines, road surfaces, railway tracks and much more. This is the removal of objects and structures from installation sites for further replacement, processing, restoration or disposal.
Dismantling is one of the most common reconstruction methods in construction. Buildings that have reached the end of their service life are often dismantled.
Why don't builders demolish the building, but dismantle it? It is not always necessary to turn a structure into scrap. Demolition is also a way to get a lot of building material that can be reused to build or maintain houses.
Roof removal
Roof removal is a demanding job and should only be done by properly trained roofers. Here you can not do without auxiliary equipment: safety belts, carabiners, a strong rope, shoes with thick soles. It is especially important to strictlycompliance with safety regulations. Dismantling of wooden and metal structures at height should only be carried out by qualified riggers and carpenters.
First of all, the top sheathing is removed from the roof, after which they begin to dismantle the crate, which must be disconnected from the walls. This is a complex and rather painstaking process that requires certain skills and dexterity. The next stage of work will be the dismantling of the internal flooring, beams, rafters, formwork. After cleaning from the remnants of construction debris, you can proceed with the installation of a new roof.
Dismantling of capital structures
Dismantling houses is a large-scale work that requires an integrated approach. Dismantling of buildings is a painstaking, lengthy, multi-stage activity that includes the dismantling of all constituent structures. Structures begin to be dismantled from the roof, gradually following to the foundation.
If it is required to reconstruct a load-bearing wall, it is necessary to substitute supports as it is dismantled and be sure to leave a part of it so that the ceiling receives the load and transfers it to the foundation. Basically, the dismantling of load-bearing walls is not done, they only manage openings for doors and windows. All other dismantling works are also carried out in stages by specialists from different areas.
In our time, the complete dismantling of structures is carried out with the help of special equipment. This method is economical and safe. High-rise buildings are well destroyed by a caterpillar excavator, while hydraulic shears are used,hydraulic hammers and many other specialized equipment. Special equipment that is used for the dismantling of buildings must have all permits for the work, and the work itself must be carried out under the supervision of responsible persons.
Dismantling is a state-regulated activity. The organization performing dismantling work must have a license for the right to perform dismantling work issued by the authorized bodies.
