For those who say there's a lot that could have been salvaged I can tell you from first hand experience it's just not worth it unless you value your time at zero. If you have some feel good hobby and your compensation is emotional then it works, otherwise no.

"We forgot the keys, but do have this excavator handy" Love it

It is so weird seeing this with a European lens. Landfills have been outlawed here 25 years ago. So everything needs to be sorted and recycled. You can still get a dumpster/container for "mixed waste", but it is something like 10 times the price, since someone has to manually dig thru it all and sort it later. Here this building would have been stripped of everything inside. Even wires and plumbing removed from the walls. All windows and doors would have to be removed first too. And the demolishing would only be an empty shell of mostly only one material.

For foreigners like me is so amazing how fragile construction is in the USA. It's even more amazing when one understands that these buildings constructed mostly with plywood and paper that will never pass construction codes of LA or Germany cost a fortune.

To what extent does it make sense to separate out different materials as you demolish the building, like metals? Or do these get separated if/when the debris is shredded at some other location?

@legohead6

6 ай бұрын

Cost of disposal is the primary determining factor. Scrap metal has value and is usually sold to a scrap dealer. Mixed demolition waste is very expensive to dispose of. Paying demolition waste rates to get rid of valuable steel doesn't make sense, so the easy to pick or significant chunks of steel are always plucked out. Most demolition companies don't process their waste any further then they do on site. Typically a third party waste removal company will be hired to remove and dispose of the waste from the site (what they do with after that is a whole other discussion). Some demolition companies will spend more time tearing down the building and more thoroughly sorting the debris as they go(concrete/brick, Wood, Metals, etc). More common on very large building demolitions where the disposal cost to just send it all mixed would be astronomical. Some even go as far as deconstructing certain parts of the buildings and saving things like windows, doors, fixtures, etc to resale or donate. Its ultimately a numbers game for the owner and/or demolition company.

This thing is very cool to watch. I'm back in my early grade school age, watching big equipment tearing down greenhouses surrounding our property. This type of machinery has ALWAYS fascinated me- human beings multiplying their physical strength (in essence) by hundreds - or even thousands - of times via technology. And it's just straight, linear motion via hydraulic cylinders & pistons, hooked up to levers -the excavator's arms- that combine to do work that requires enough force to easily knock down walls. Very cool.

This is so satisfying! I hope you double checked the address first 😁

Here in the Netherlands it works very differently. All usable materials are first neatly removed. Then controlled demolition and sorting all materials for recycling.

What i do not understand is You've got a 30 year old building in good usable shape being demolished yet you look around and old 1950s gas stations in really bad shape still stand. Part of the permit possess should be evaluating a structures usefulness regardless of its area. That could have been used for other stuff like a doctors office or a dentists or even daycare.
