Problems encountered by demolition crews Safety • Maintaining a safe operation - in dangerous buildings, amid continuous aftershocks – was always the biggest challenge. Structural propping during demolition of the Clarendon Tower Problems encountered by demolition crews Ability to do the job • Tall buildings, especially the Grand Chancellor Hotel, required specialist demolition experience and were a priority. • There were varying levels of experience and ability amongst local contractors. • Specialist equipment, especially high reach, was not readily available. Problems encountered by demolition crews Communication • Contractors needed to share operational risks and issues. • Good record keeping was essential – by the demolition contractors, and also by the lifeline utilities companies. • Clear instructions were not always received. Problems encountered by demolition crews Disposal of debris and hazardous materials • Correct debris disposal was essential to avoid potential legacy issues. • Not all hazards could be identified inside dangerous structures. -
