Recently, the demand for demolition for the unnecessary steel frame structure is increasing due to deterioration and unsatisfactory functional conditions and the major highlights of demolition issues. This execution case was intended to describe an application of the felling method as one about the suggested method for explosive demolition method of ore bin and coke bin facilities, which were steel frame structures. And we used the charging container for blast cutting of the steel frame structure. As a result of the explosive demolition, the ore bin and coke bin had collapsed precisely according to the estimated direction. And the explosive demolition was completed without causing any damage to surrounding facilities.

Building demolitions at urban area make some inconvenience to neighborhood through generating noises, ground vibrations, and dusts. For this reason, various methods to control such environmental impacts have been being designed and practiced. Among the methods, the use of explosive demolition is rapidly increasing because it can minimize the inconveniency as well as decrease the working time and cost. In this respect, the old Sung-Nam city hall, which was a Rahmen structure comprised of beams, slabs and columns, was decided to be demolished by explosive demolition. This paper shows that explosive demolition can be the most suitable way of removing old buildings eco-friendly, safely, and economically by showing the observation results obtained from the actual demolition operation for the Sung-Nam city hall.

This case study is concerned with the project of the explosive demolition for the DCRE Incheon plant located in Hakik district in Incheon city. The building was severely aging due to the high temperature and sea winds of hundreds of degrees emitted by chimney-shaped steel structures inside the building. Due to this, the concrete of the column and the beam fell off and rusted rebar were exposed, and some of the slabs were severely damaged, making it difficult for workers to access the structure. Therefore, it is not possible to apply a mechanical demolition method in which heavy equipment enters the interior of the building, and an explosive demolition method was applied to allow the building to be demolished without dismantling the internal facilities of the building. The order of blasting proceeded in the order of (1) building ${\rightarrow}$ (2) chimney 2 ${\rightarrow}$ (3) chimney 1. A total of 406 electronic detonators (Unitronic 600) was used to sequentially initiate the explosives installed at appropriate in building and chimneys.

Recently the demand of demolition for the unnecessary cylindrical silo structure is increasing due to deterioration and unsatisfactory functional conditions and the issue of demolition is becoming a major highlight. This case study introduced the explosive demolition of the cylindrical silo structure by felling method. The results of explosive demolition conducted on cylindrical silo structure using the felling method show, A silo had collapsed precisely according to estimated direction but in case of B silo there was a minor difference. The lower colunms and ring girder support was designed to the hinge line but in reality the lower colunms of the silo did not do its structural support role and only the ring girder support did its role successfully. As for the impact vibration, most of the measurements were within the estimated range.

In this study, a demolition analysis code using the adaptively shifted integration (ASI)-Gauss technique, which describes structural member fracture by shifting the numerical integration point to an appropriate position and simultaneously releasing the sectional forces in the element, is developed. The code was verified and validated by comparing the predicted results with those of several experiments. A demolition planning tool utilizing the concept of a key element index, which explicitly indicates the contribution of each structural column to the vertical load capacity of the structure, is also develped. Two methods of selecting specific columns to efficiently demolish the whole structure are demonstrated: selecting the columns from the largest index value and from the smallest index value. The demolition results are confirmed numerically by conducting collapse analyses using the ASI-Gauss technique. The numerical results suggest that to achieve a successful demolition, a group of columns with the largest key element index values should be selected when explosives are ignited in a simultaneous blast, whereas those with the smallest should be selected when explosives are ignited in a sequence, with a final blast set on a column with large index value.

Recently, the demand for the dismantling of large-scale industrial structures is increasing, and the construction of restoring the dismantled industrial to their original natural environment is underway. This case was an application of the explosive demolition method to the demolition of a large section turbine foundation structure which structural obsolescence and failure to meet functional requirements. As a result of the explosive demolition, the fracture condition of the turbine foundation was satisfactory, and the explosive demolition was completed without causing any damage to the surrounding facilities.

This paper is on the current and prospect of the most advanced explosive technics, Futhermore, utmost needed and centered interesting basic theory, The demolition is described with counter plan on the problems of carrying out example. Specified description noted on the pollution especially noisy, vibration, dust and disperse pollution with comprehensive counter plan. Although it has some insufficiency, 1 expect my paper will be to advance the explosive technics.
