Abstract

Every structure has a service life that can be used safely. The demolition works of
the buildings that complete the period of use are quite troublesome. Various
demolition techniques have been developed by structural engineers over time. The
main purpose of this study is to compare demolition techniques with their
advantages and disadvantages. The most important problem with demolition works
is safe operation. In this article, the necessary techniques have been investigated to
perform the demolition work safely in the desired direction.
