Reconstruction and redevelopment of old and dilapidated apartment and housing have been increasing to provide more housing accommodation and to secure the safety of building structures since the middle of 1990's. Since, however, little researches on the demolition technique have been made, conventional mechanical demolition method were applied to the most of works that resulted in flooding in small demolition companies. Problems associated with mechanical demolition method are increase not only in working days and costs, but also in public claims, particularly for high-rise building structures. This is to contribute the demolition industries bt providing the concept, standards, and technique of demolition engineering while maximizing working efficiency and minimizing public claims.

According as demand for superannuated building increases recently, much researches about demolition method of construction are going on. This case study executed to center library building located in Dankook University. Explosives demolition method applied Progressive Collapse. Explosives demolition main blasting floors are 2, 4floor, assistance blasting floor is 1 floor. In the nearest distance (150 m), Vibration measurement result were 0.0302 cm/sec (PPV). Change was not in measurement value is crack gauge which install beforehand.

Now a performance process of Demolition works is 'Before-Removal & After-Classification' method in Korea. This method is short of demolition time, but construction wastes contained substances lower recycling rate of construction, raise expenses of reclamation & treatment. Then the government has decided upon a positive 'Before-Classification & After-Removal' method, and substantially raise a recycling rate of construction wastes. Therefore, this study makes an investigation into state of internal and external demolition field through evaluating technological level, we make a proposal of dismantling method from there. Also, we put dismantling to the test in an apartment by proposed work process. As the result, it made a term of works increased for removing interior material. To solve this problem, we need to develop tools and methods of construction that can remove efficiently. From now on, we continuously need to study a breakdown system of dismantling, analysis of dismantling process and general system by inspecting entire demolition process. And we have to study details for making a specific thesis of method of removing interior material which was based on developing a suitable partial demolition machine and dismantling works.

While the scale of the domestic market for demolition work is steadily increasing, research on cost prediction for demolition work is insufficient. Thus, this study proposes a cost prediction model for demolition work that reflects various attributes influecing the fluctuation of demolition cost. 13 influencing factors and historical cost data were collected based on literature review and experts' advice, and two prediction models were constructed through regression analysis and the prediction accuracy was evaluated. As a result, it showed an average error rate of about 6 to 12%, and it was possible to explore the possibility of use as a reliable prediction model. The results of this study can contribute to estimating appropriate construction cost and improving related standards for domestic demolition works in the future.

The research on the safe and efficient demolition technique of building structure is required due to rapid increase in structures which has the problems of safety and endurance. The techniques of blasting and operation and parameters affecting the efficiency of demolition were analyzed to maximize demolition efficiency. And successful, unsuccessful and near-miss demolition cases in Korea have been investigated so that demolition operation can be safe and accurate.

The number of demolition work is rapidly increasing because the middle- and high-rised buildings constructed over the rapid industrialization and urbanization have been deteriorated in social and structural aspects. However, theoretical approaches or studies related to the demolition cost prediction are still insufficient. Thus, this study derived and analyzed important factors affecting the fluctuation of the building demolition costs. 14 factors was derived through literature reviews and experts' interview, and the importance of each factor was analyzed to the each work(temporary work, structure demolition, and waste disposal) and the entire demolition work by using descriptive analysis. The survey results showed that the demolition costs was greatly influenced by environmental properties of the site. The results of this study can be used as a basis for estimating the approximate cost of the demolition work.

As the danger of exposure to the asbestos has been revealed, the importance of demolition asbestos in existing buildings has been raised. Extensive body of study has been conducted to evaluate the risk of demolition asbestos, but there were confined types of variables caused by not reflecting categorical information and limitations in collecting quantitative information. Thus, this study aims to derive a model that predicts the risk in workplace of demolition asbestos by collecting categorical and continuous variables. For this purpose, categorical and continuous variables were collected from asbestos demolition reports, and the risk assessment score was set as the dependent variable. In this study, the influence of each variable was identified using logistic regression, and the risk prediction model methodologies were compared through decision tree regression and artificial neural network. As a result, a conditional risk prediction model was derived to evaluate the risk of demolition asbestos, and this model is expected to be used to ensure the safety of asbestos demolition workers.

Recent increasing of redevelopment project causes construction of new buildings after demolition of old buildings. However, the researches have been largely confirmed to analysis of behaviour characteristics of existing subway tunnel due to adjacent excavation which constructing new building so far. Accordingly, The ${\bigcirc}{\bigcirc}$ Building which will be built after demolishing existing parking lot is selected as a subject of study. And the purpose of this study is to analyze the effects on existing subway tunnel due to loading and unloading caused by demolition of upper buildings. The numerical analysis was performed by using the MIDAS/GTS program. Two cases for the numerical analysis were analyzed. The one is considering demolition of old buildings and the other is not considering it. This study is to analyze the effect on existing subway tunnel caused by demolition of upper building by analyzing numerical analysis results for tunnel displacement and lining stress. It was analyzed that the effects of considering the demolition of old buildings are larger than those of no considering it.

During mechanical demolition of RC structures, weights of dismantling equipment and demolition waste of building are applied to unexpected load which did not be considered during the design of structural member. Nevertheless, the loading of dismantling equipment and dismantling process are mainly dependent on field managers' field workers' or experiences without considering safety of structural member by a structural engineer. It is urgently required that reflecting actual circumstance of mechanical demolition, safety evaluation method to evaluate the safety and the guideline for appropriate capacity of structural member to support dismantling equipment weight, be provided. Through site investigation and questionnaire on field workers, this paper proposed demolition waste load, load factor, strength reduction factor, and so on. These are essential to safe evaluation of a building, ready to demolition. Considering actual circumstance of mechanical demolition, safety evaluation method of building and design method of slab and beam was suggested to a dilapidated building. An capability to loading of dismantling equipment was proposed, applied to RC slab and RC beam. Therefore, the suggested safety evaluation method and the guideline for an capability to loading of dismantling equipment weight can reasonably evaluate the capacity of structural member in demolition and use effectively as increasing efficiency and improving safety of demolition through proper management of dismantling equipments.
