Demolition and the Environment

Posted by Charlie - January 31st, 2011

Introduction

Taking down old buildings and replacing them with new is a process that has been going on for thousands of years. The destruction of buildings was normal during battles and skirmishes of communities; and also due to natural disturbances such as earthquakes or volcanic activity. The resultant ruins would need to be removed and rebuilt.

So the idea of demolition would have come about where a population wished to re-inhabit a specific area or site. (One famous example is the Holy Temple in Jerusalem which was deliberately destroyed by the Assyrians around 586 BCE. After 50 years of Assyrian occupation the Jews returned to Jerusalem and began the re-construction of the second temple which took seventy years to complete.)

However the actual word to demolish only came into being in 1570, and has been used since then, in the way we understand it today, to mean the deliberate taking down or destroying of a building or structure.

Preserving the Past – Preparing the Future

In a country like Britain with a very dense population per square mile, there is a limited amount of available land that can be used for building . In Britain there is a policy of protected land between built up areas of the villages and towns known as Green Belt. This means the land is from urban development to preserve the agricultural and natural heritage which is vital to the economy and structure of the country.

The outcome of this policy is that there is a constant shortage of land for housing and industry, so the developers have to be more creative when providing accommodation for the population. One of the ways of doing this is to find places where the buildings are no longer commercially viable or have been abandoned, and then re-use the area for a new purpose.

These areas are known as Brownfield, or Greyfield sites. In some cities, particularly Leeds and Manchester, instead of demolishing the old warehouses or factories, they have been converted into apartments, retaining the original shell and reconfiguring the internal dimensions into desirable living accommodation.

Brownfield sites are disused industrial and commercial facilities where the land may have been contaminated with hazardous waste or pollution. They are potentially valuable for significant redevelopment once they have been cleaned up. Greyfield sites are urban properties that have been underutilised or abandoned, but do not have the environmental issues of brownfield sites. They were termed greyfield sites because of large areas of asphalt that covered the land such as old car parks. These sites are valuable because they already have the infrastructure such as water, sewage, electricity and gas in place and do not need a great deal of remedial work to utilise the site.

When a structure is to be demolished there are many different aspects to consider and various ways of approaching the task. The size and construction of the building, the new proposed use of the site and whether or not there are valuable elements suitable for re-use, will all determine how it is to be dismantled.

Traditional Demolition

Traditionally, once all the services were disconnected, the machinery and men would go in and just knock down the walls which caused the roof to collapse inwards and then all they needed to do was to drag all the wreckage away. Any concrete hard standing would be broken up ready for removal. The old excavation processes would be to clear rubbish to landfill sites.

However modern demolition practices are very controlled and are subject to strict planning, safety and monitoring regulations.

Small structures such as two or three storey houses can be dismantled quite easily with hydraulic excavators and bulldozers using an undermining process. The walls are undermined at the base, in order to topple the structure; at the same time the manner and direction of the fall is controlled. Safety issues and clean-up procedures need to be considered when determining how the building will be undermined and demolished.

Larger buildings such as tower blocks and chimneys require more specialist techniques, and these are discussed in more detail below.

Deconstruction

A new more recent approach to demolishing buildings is deconstruction – which is a green approach. The aim is to minimise the amount of waste going to landfill sites by carefully preserving valuable materials to be reused. Although the work may be a painstaking task of dismantling by hand – brick by brick – or beam by beam, the reclaimed materials can then be recycled or re-used for future buildings. The results of deconstruction can save in excess of 90% waste from going to landfill sites. When the farmer opposite to my house sold his farm yard with barns for housing, the builder demolished the barns, cleaned up the bricks and reused them for the perimeter wall of the farmhouse. At the time I was looking for some rubble as a base for a path and the builder let me take several barrow loads off his pile.

Recycling

Historically when old buildings were ruined from disuse or war damage the local people would gradually remove the stone and use it to build their new structures such as houses or barns. The stone used to construct Hadrian’s wall between Carlisle and Newcastle has mostly gone because the local population made off with the beautifully dressed stone after the Romans left, to use in their own buildings. So even in those days people understood the value of recycling because it was much cheaper than having to quarry and dress the stone themselves.

At one time the rubble resulting from a demolished building would be taken to a landfill site for disposal. Now however concrete is easily broken up with the latest machine called a guillotine and the resultant rubble can be crushed and used as sub-base material for the foundation of new buildings that replace the old, or sent to other construction sites. These days this crushed rubble is called 6f2 crushed stone or 6f2 crushed material.

Modern machinery and techniques allows the demolition companies to efficiently segregate waste types on or off-site. Wherever possible construction materials are recycled and re-used in the new structures. Recycling of waste contributes to a considerable savings in project costs as well as being good for the environment.

When we renovated our bungalow 20 years ago the builder, who was a bell ringer, found an old beam from a bell tower that was being renovated, and after carefully treating it, installed it in the kitchen. It made a feature of the room giving it some badly needed character and has never needed any further treatment.

Copper pipes, wiring, roof tiles or slates, floor tiles and doors, and wood panelling are some of the valuable objects that are saved for recycling and re-use. There are specialist yards in many towns where reclaimed old or antique artefacts are available for purchase.

Tall Buildings

A UK demolition company that is highly skilled should be brought in for the demolition of very tall buildings.

In some cases a wrecking ball on a crane may be used to demolish the top part of a tall building until it is down to a manageable height. However these days this process is rarely used by professional demolition companies because of the uncontrollable factor of the swinging ball and the proximity of other buildings.

Other methods of demolition of tall buildings are by implosion using explosives, controlled collapse and piecemeal. Also ‘High Reach’ demolition excavators are used where explosives are notsuitable. Once the building is down to a more manageable height demolition continues in the usual way.

The steeplejack Fred Dibnah became famous in the late 1970′s for his work on demolishing tall chimneys without the need for explosives. He would cut an ingress at the base of the chimney, use wooden props to support the brickwork and then burn the props so that the chimney toppled hopefully in the right direction. One time he was nearly killed because it didn’t topple in quite the right direction.

The tallest building to be lawfully demolished was the Singer Building of New York in 1967/8. More recently the collapse of the World Trade Centre after the 9/11 attack in 2001 illustrates the terrible devastation that occurs if the demolition is not controlled and very carefully contained.

Explosions

What usually comes to mind for many people when they think about demolition would be the dramatic collapse of a tall building using explosives. However it is usually the process of implosion, using explosives, that brings down a tall building so that it does as little damage as possible to the surrounding environment. Implosion is essential for dense urban areas and is very fast, the collapse taking only seconds, with the building dropping inwards into its own footprint.

Using explosives is very specialist work and is a highly skilled process and getting it wrong can be disastrous. If an implosion is not prepared correctly the danger may be damage to neighbouring structures or even killing onlookers from flying debris. Even more dangerous is a partial collapse of a building where the remaining structure is unstable and there are still primed explosives that failed to go off. Workers are in great danger if or when they continue the demolition.

Other potential dangers of working with explosives occurs when the atmospheric pressure from low cloud above the implosion site may cause the shockwave to spread outwards instead of upwards. The wave of energy and sound created will break windows and cause other damage to the surrounding buildings. Because of the dangers of working with explosives, implosion will only be used when other methods are too costly or impractical.

Health and Safety

Demolition of any building is highly dangerous and is a much more complicated and technical process than most people would realise. Experienced and skilled operators are essential to ensure safety for both workers and public alike. The stability of any structure is reliant on the interdependence of its component parts, so an incorrect sequence of dismantling could result in a premature collapse.

Survey of Demolition

Identification of any structural problems as well as risks associated with hazardous or flammable substances.

Where petrol has been stored, in a disused garage for example, precautions need to be taken to prevent a fire hazard.

Health and safety is paramount in demolition work so personnel working in the industry have to be adequately trained. It is advisable for operatives to have gained a Certificate of Competence in Demolition to ensure they have the necessary skills and safety awareness. All demolition work is regulated by the Construction, Design and Management Regulatory Body.

Sequence of Demolition

There are regulations in place as to the sequence of actions before any demolition can be performed. Each area council will have their own specific list for planning approval, and they vary from area to area, but a typical order would be as follows:-

Provision of Information

The demolition company must provide information about the construction to be demolished, its previous use and the appropriate demolition method to be applied including disposal of any hazardous substances

Preferred and Safe Method of Work

Any reputable company involved in demolition will know and understand the most suitable methods of disposal. Planning and outlining the dismantling process is necessary for assiduous monitoring. A detailed statement outlining the safety process has to be agreed by all parties involved before any demolition can take place.

Preparation and Planning

There is a great deal of preparation to be done before any work can start on the demolishing of the building itself. Issues such as asbestos abatement, disconnecting utilities, rodent baiting, dealing with hazardous substances and making safe any electric, gas or other services have to be resolved.

Protection of the Public

Where demolition is carried out in heavily populated areas the protection of the public is without question paramount. Safety cannot be compromised. Temporary services may need to be arranged, health hazards assessed and peopledisturbed will need to be informed.

Conclusion

The word ‘demolish’ is interpreted as the deliberate and controlled collapse of a structure. This is usually done to make way for future structures or to make an existing structure safe. Demolition work is a very riskybusiness and demolishing any building is a complex and skilled process. The aim in demolition is to remove an unwanted building as safely and quickly as possible, recycle or re-use most of the old material, and clear the site ready for the subsequent use.

In the centre of Nottingham over the last few years there has been a major reconstruction of what was an old car park into a brand new shopping centre. While this was going on the public were only really aware of the boarding around the area, a change in traffic direction and maybe some big lorries going in and out of the site.

So the next time you see structures being demolished to make way for the new, give a thought to the company involved who’s team are daily working in a very dangerous environment, adhering to all of the regulations and carefully and meticulously carrying out the project to bring us the modern conveniences we have come to expect and clearing the way for the future.

Identifying the Best Keywords

Posted by Charlie - January 31st, 2011

How to create an online market.

In order to get your site noticed on the Internet, you have to find good keywords. Finding the most useful keywords gets your product out to the best audience. The best user is the audience that is likely to be trying to find your product. The right keyword is the word or phrase that defines your service in absolute terms. Those terms ensure you entice your customer immediately without trying to sift through possibles who aren’t definitively trying to find your product.The Internet is a very useful place for getting products and services out to people.

However, because the web is so large and so many potential customers use it, there’s a high chance that people finding a website will carry on through it without purchasing anything. A website using good keywords does not have this problem.

If your site is backed up with keywords which encourage the surfers who are definitely hunting for your service, then every surfer that discovers you is likely to spend.

Long Tail keywords

Commence by devising a long tail keyword – a very accurate description of buying solutions.

The science behind this reads something like this. If there are hundreds of people hunting for a general specimen of what you supply, then the battle for that keyword is going to be crowded. If you can shave that battle down by finding a more accurate description of the product you supply, you’ll get yourself working in an Internet niche where there is little fighting. When there is hardly any fighting for a keyword your site is more sure to get successful rankings on web bot results pages.

Mostly, a more definite keyword – a keyword with less competition than others – is built of several words. Hence the moniker “long tail keyword”, or “key phrase”. More words mean better definition and that means customers coming to you because they desire what you sell.

Defining successful long tail keywords

Time to place our cash where we eat. In what way are we going to construct a working long tail keyword for microsoft licensing?

The method for selecting good keyword choices is actually quite easy. An individual word is useless because there’s too much competition implied in it. An individual word with a qualification, which makes the first word more directly related to a product or service, is far better. Appending a couple more qualifiers is more useful still. Developing complicated key phrases, though, is going too far.

If your site uses too many words in your long tail keyword, you will absolutely find a less contested market. But this market is liable to be too restricted. Using too many words in your key phrase will narrow the net down so much that just one or two clients finding it will buy what you sell. The trick is to find a happy medium: enough qualifying words to carve out a nice market for your service without travelling too far.

Some lessons from the net

There’s plenty to mull over from the websites already getting this done – like this one.

If you examine the keywords behind this site, you’ll realise that they attach to a particular market without driving away probable customers. There’s adequate thinning down here to make occupying a market presence on this part of the Internet worthwhile. The website owners have angled away from a chaotic market base and found themselves a finely tuned niche instead.

Employing well researched long tail keywords takes you to a really wanted location in the universe of Internet sales and services. The useful medium. You’re neither a tree lost in the forest nor a lonely acorn much too far out on its own. Apply these tips and your traffic will come.

What you need to learn about planning your job?

Planning a career track these days can be quite challenging compared as it was previously. Undoubtedly it is not easy to say whether you will stay with the same company throughout your life. Experts agree that today people will have to switch job a minimum of 5 times in their career. On the other hand you should make sure that you select a job that actually please you and you have an actual fascination with. So as to help you plan your career in the best possible way I’ve written this short article and I hope that it will be appropriate for you personally.

The first thing that you will need to decide on is whether or not you’ll have your personal business or work with another person. Some individuals are born entrepreneurs and will have a hard time fitting in a business. It is vital you get that clear in your head. If you’re a type of person that is willing to take risk and to take your own decisions then it may be a good idea that you opt for your personal business. It is simpler than ever before to setup your own business currently as evidenced by the diverse scheme which exist. You can have a look at our French website on entrepreneur (statut d’auto entrepreneur) if you need to get more info on this topic.

Alternatively if you need a more classic job then it is essential that you go for a sector that’s actually sought after. Probably the most interesting job that you might consider in this moment is in the field of project management. Project management will require that you control and implement projects in the most effective way. You’ll find different ways to get trained in this field in order to get qualified within your job. The training will help you to learn numerous tools such as project management software and that will permit you to be qualified within your job.

One tip that I’ll like to give you at this stage is financial planning. Lots of people do not have any financial management techniques and just spend their money when it comes. It is crucial you have at least a pension plan and an insurance cover to make sure that you have enough money during your retirement. Did you know that there are even schemes that will organize your burial? This should be a good way to protect your family particularly with this tough moment. Do you want to get more information with this topic? Have a look at this French post on funeral service (assurance obseque) because it features some beneficial point.

It is crucial that you spend some time in order to plan your job. Instead of jumping on the first opportunity this will permit you to clearly pick the most appropriate job for you. For example if you have an entrepreneurial spirit it will be silly to get in a classic office job because you will feel discouraged very quickly. Starting organizing your career early should enable you to commit to changing whenever there is the need. This will stop you from having some difficulty in the future.
