THEORETICAL CONSIDERATIONS REGARDING THE CHOICE OF THE DEMOLITION TECHNOLOGY OF MINIMUM IMPACT BUILDINGS ON THE ENVIRONMENT

Abstract

In the process of modernization, several new buildings are being constructed, necessitating the demolition of old structures to make room for them. However, with the increasing number of demolished buildings, there is a significant amount of waste generated, leading to considerable pollution. Environmental concerns have escalated due to the depletion of natural resources and the rapid deterioration of water, air, and soil quality. Consequently, a Community environmental policy has been established with the objective of preserving, protecting, and improving the quality of the environment while safeguarding human health. The protection of the environment is crucial for both present and future generations. In light of these considerations, this paper addresses the need to identify demolition technologies that meet the European Union's requirements for environmental protection and sustainable development, among the most commonly employed methods.
