Dismantling of reinforced concrete and concrete structures

Dismantling of reinforced concrete structures is an important construction process. Demolition may be required for various reasons, for example, the structure is in a state of disrepair and requires replacement, reconstruction or complete dismantling of the building is planned. Performing this work requires certain skills, the use of special methods and equipment. Therefore, it is worth trusting the professionals of the company “Forest-Ukraine”. We will dismantle concrete walls, floors, as well as other reinforced concrete and concrete structures at an affordable price.

Features of reinforced concrete and concrete structures

Reinforced concrete structures consist of concrete and reinforcement. They are used for the construction of various types of structures, for example, houses, bridges, walls, foundations and other objects. They withstand significant mechanical loads, are quite hard and durable. The advantages of using such structures:

• high strength;
• fire resistance;
• economy.

But there are also disadvantages. These structures and components are quite heavy, so they are difficult to reconstruct. If the project requires the use of other structural elements, dismantling is carried out. Demolition is also carried out in case of damage to reinforced concrete and the impossibility of its further use.

You can order the dismantling of concrete structures on the website by filling out an application. To familiarize yourself with the prices, you should contact our managers for a price list.

Preparation for dismantling reinforced concrete structures

Preparatory work is a mandatory stage of dismantling concrete structures and buildings. Before demolition or disassembly, the following steps must be performed:

• Checking the condition of structures. This will help determine the overall condition of the object, identify possible damage and weak spots.
• Risk assessment and selection of safe dismantling technology. Potential hazards are analyzed and safety measures are determined, and the safest dismantling technology is selected.
• Work planning. A plan is drawn up that defines the sequence of all stages of achieving the set goal. The necessary resources (labor, equipment, materials, etc.) and an approximate work schedule are calculated.
• Obtaining the necessary permits. Certain documents may be required from local governments.

Only after comprehensive preparation can the demolition of reinforced concrete structures be carried out.

Dismantling technologies for reinforced concrete and concrete structures

Various technologies are used to dismantle reinforced concrete and concrete structures. The most common of them are:

• Manual dismantling. This method is necessary for dismantling individual parts of structures. At the same time, the integrity of other components is preserved. Various tools are used, for example, perforators, hammers, cutters, abrasive materials, etc. This allows for controlled destruction, removing individual structural elements without significant damage to adjacent elements.
• Dismantling using specialized equipment. Heavy construction machinery is used, including excavators, crushers, bulldozers, etc. Thanks to this technique, it is possible to destroy reinforced concrete and concrete structures. This method is effective for dismantling massive parts of structures or structures completely.
• Demolition by explosion. Explosives help to quickly and efficiently dismantle large arrays of reinforced concrete structures. Explosives are placed at appropriate points in the structure. Due to the energy of the explosion, the structure is completely destroyed.

The choice of dismantling technology depends on the tasks set, the type of reinforced concrete or concrete structures, as well as their components.

Recycling and material recycling

Our company pays enough attention to the recycling and processing of materials remaining after the dismantling of reinforced concrete and concrete structures. After the destruction, concrete, metal, bricks, stones and other related waste usually remain. The following methods are used for their recycling and recycling:

• Concrete recycling. It is crushed and processed into filler for new concrete. It can also be used as a base material for road construction.
• Secondary metal processing. Metal elements are used to manufacture steel plates, profiles or are needed as raw materials for the production of new metal products.
• Brick and stone processing. This is necessary for exterior finishing and other construction work.

Reusing materials in other construction projects reduces costs for the customer and has a positive impact on the environment.
