Demolition is a kind of construction related activities that many practitioners in the engineering fields often overlooked. Many modern buildings nowadays the structure of which are quite complex in design. Situations like structures of extremely huge volume, high headroom, long span, with complicated layout, odd shape, partly or fully composed with precast elements, tensioned members, in the form of basement, or with certain earth retaining structure within. Tradition method to carry out the demolition can no longer apply in order to tackle all the concerns behind. Including safety, of course. 

In this seminar, experts in this area will share their experience making use of the projects they handled in the past years to illustrate what the challenges are commonly facing in those kinds of demolitions. These include the using of diamond-cut, boring, hydraulic splitting, remote-control robots, super-high pressure water jetting, or a combination of these methods with the input of AR or BIM to facilitate the works.
