The commercial structure that will be demolished should be maintained in a safe and stable condition to prevent the unexpected collapse of part or all of the structure.
Consideration should be made as to:
The stability of the structure
The position, depth and type of basements, wells and underground storage that may be involved
Public access
Boundary walls
Adjoining properties and structures
Many local government authorities require a permit before you decide to demolish your commercial site, including the approval from an asbestos removal specialist. These permits can be processed within 2 weeks, however, this does vary according to your local council so you will need to contact them to find out details.
You will also need to complete a risk assessment, which analyses the demolition process. Along with assessing risks, a professional demolitions team will check for hazardous materials, asbestos and more.
Preparing a demolition plan which includes the method and any environmental damage and any hazards that may arise throughout the demolition process will help you in your commercial site demolition schedule.
Anyone affected by your site demolition (such as neighbours, employees and the general public) should also be notified of the plans and timeframe.
In site demolitions you will find that you will need the required licenses to undertake work. Using a Industrial Demolition company will ensure that you are covered by the relevant licences, including demolition work, asbestos removal, high risk work or use of explosives.
