Total Demolition

Demolition & Dismantling

What Is Total Demolition?

Total demolition is the complete removal of structures, equipment and supporting infrastructure. NADC plans each project around the facility, surrounding operations, site conditions, material handling requirements and the property’s intended future use.

NADC performs total demolition for industrial facilities, manufacturing plants, power generation sites, commercial structures and other complex properties. Work may include structural demolition, equipment removal, concrete and foundation removal, debris processing, recycling and site preparation.

A Planned Approach to Total Demolition

Every total demolition project requires a plan tailored to the structure, site conditions, surrounding operations and final project objectives. NADC evaluates the complete scope before demolition begins so that each phase can be completed safely, efficiently and in the proper sequence.

01

Project Planning & Engineering

Structures, access requirements, equipment needs and demolition sequencing are evaluated to develop an approach specific to the property.

02

Utility & Environmental Coordination

Utility isolation, hazardous-material requirements and environmental controls are coordinated before and throughout demolition activities.

03

Controlled Demolition & Material Handling

Structures and equipment are removed in planned stages while debris, recyclable materials and recoverable assets are safely processed and separated.

04

Foundation Removal & Site Preparation

Concrete, foundations and remaining infrastructure are removed as required to prepare the property for redevelopment, construction or its next intended use.

Total Demolition Capabilities

NADC provides complete demolition services based on the structure, site conditions and intended future use of the property. Each scope is planned to support safe removal, efficient material handling and proper preparation of the site.

Structural Demolition

Complete removal of industrial, commercial and institutional structures using methods selected for the building and surrounding conditions.

Equipment & Plant Dismantling

Removal of production equipment, process systems, tanks, conveyors and other facility components.

Concrete & Foundation Removal

Removal of slabs, foundations, pits, below-grade structures and related concrete infrastructure.

Material Processing & Recycling

Sorting and processing of metals, concrete, brick, asphalt and other demolition materials for recycling, reuse or disposal.

Asset Recovery

Identification and separation of equipment, metals and other materials with potential reuse or resale value.

Site Restoration & Preparation

Removal of remaining debris and infrastructure to prepare the property for redevelopment, construction or future use.
