Dismantling the old building facade from the point of view of construction types

The reasons for carrying out such work may be different: major repairs, construction of a new facility or reconstruction, emergency condition or replacement of building elements. Dismantling features depend on the specifics of the facility itself, which is to be removed:

• Hinged ventilated facades - made of porcelain stoneware, glass, aluminum or metal panels, require preliminary removal of fasteners and profiles;
• Plaster - are removed during major repairs and renovations, require complete removal of the old finish;
• Brick and concrete - are dismantled using jackhammers or cutting tools.

It is worth noting that these works necessarily involve a preliminary inspection of the building in order to prevent damage to the load-bearing elements. Most often, they are carried out at a height, and therefore require the installation of scaffolding and the participation of climbers.

Choosing a method for dismantling the facade

The method of removing the foundation of a building is chosen taking into account many factors. The most important of them are the materials of the object, its integrity and the characteristics of the damage and the location of the structure. The most commonly used method is the use of mechanical means. A team of craftsmen uses hydraulic presses, cranes and excavators equipped with appropriate attachments. With the help of such machines, even the largest and heaviest structures can be dismantled efficiently and quickly.

Work that requires precision and accuracy can be carried out with the involvement of manual labor. Usually, this method is appropriate in the case of dismantling old buildings or those located in historical areas of the city. Despite the large expenditure of time and effort, this method makes it possible to preserve structural elements for further processing or reuse.

Another method is the use of robotic systems. It involves the operation of special devices that are controlled remotely. This method is considered the most popular for areas with limited space.

Preparation for dismantling the facade in Kyiv and the main stages

First of all, before the work, the object is prepared. Specialists carefully assess the condition of the structure and determine the features of the building. The strength of the materials, the condition of the joints between the elements, the presence of hazardous materials are taken into account. The site for the work is also prepared - protective fences are installed, objects and communications that are nearby are moved. Subsequently, dismantling work is carried out according to the following algorithm:

• removal of external decoration and cladding, including decorative elements - siding, plaster, tiles, clinker, stone, panels;
• removal of insulation elements - polystyrene, mineral wool, etc.;
• removal of cornices, ebbs, visors, having previously removed dowels, anchors and other fasteners;
• dismantling of window and door frames with cleaning and separation of structural elements by type of materials;
• dismantling of external walls - completely or partially, depending on the project and work estimate;
• removal of pieces of material with subsequent placement in bags and removal for disposal.

Sorting construction waste into concrete, glass, wood, metal significantly reduces the burden on the environment and disposal costs.
