8.2 Method of dismantling of RC slab and walls:
i) The area where dismantling is planned, will be cordoned off properly and warning
signs will be kept to caution the unauthorized persons from entering the area.
ii) Temporary barriers will be arranged and maintained to prevent spread of dust,
fumes, noise, and smoke.
iii) It will be ensured that the area to be dismantled is cleared of all existing electrical
conduits and other services before the commencement of dismantling.
iv) The demolition will not be commenced until precautionary measures have been
inspected and approved.
v) Installment of temporary bracing or supports will be done to support the walls (D/1-
9) and prevent it from collapsing during the demolition. Braces will be placed at
regular intervals along the length of the wall, ensuring adequate support is provided.
vi) Installation would involve securely anchoring braces to the walls using bolts or
anchors and, if necessary, tying them back to the ground.
vii) Sequence of dismantling the roof slab: Starting point of dismantling will be near an
edge or corner of the slab where it may be easier to break through. Cutting and
breaking of the slab will be done in manageable sections. Commencement and
advancement for cutting the sections is shown in the drawing below. Controlled
dismantling of sections starting from the corners and move towards equipment
room wall.

viii) Hydraulic excavator with the rock breaker attachment will be positioned at a
safe distance from the concrete slab, ensuring it is stable and securely
anchored to the ground.
ix) Position the rock breaker attachment at the edge of the slab. Guide it to the
designated starting point on the roof slab and start it.
x) Lower the breaker's chisel or point onto the surface of the concrete slab and
apply gradual pressure to initiate the breaking process.
Page 11 of 17
xi) Work methodically across the surface of the slab, breaking the concrete into
manageable sections.
xii) After the surface concrete is sufficiently broken, the areas where rebars are
present will be focused to break the concrete around the rebar, and
exposing them for removal.
xiii) Breaking the Rebar: Once we've broken through the surface layer of
concrete, gas cutters or sledgehammer will be use to cut / break up any
rebar or other reinforcements embedded within the slab. Extra care must
be taken not to damage any surrounding structures or utilities.
xiv) Break the concrete into smaller pieces using the rock breaker, making it
easier to lift and dispose of.
xv) Breaking of beams: Beams will be dismantled in the order of secondary
beam and then main beams. The concrete is first broken away at both ends
near its column support to expose reinforcement. Reinforcement then be
cut to partially drop the beam down. Heavy beams shall be supported
before cutting at the extremities.
xvi) Removal of broken concrete and rebars: As we break up part of the
concrete and rebar, we will remove the debris from the work area using a
wheelbarrow or other suitable method.
xvii) Concrete waste will be placed on a flat and stable surface for ease of
handling.
xviii) Break down large concrete pieces into smaller chunks using a rock breaker
or similar equipment if necessary.
xix) Inspection of concrete chunks will also be done in order to check any
embedded steel left during the segregation process.
xx) Segregated concrete chunks will be loaded in a dumper and then, will be
disposed off at the designated location.
xxi) On the other hands, remaining steel will also be loaded in a separate
dumper for its disposal at the designated area for steel.
xxii) Repeat: Breaking of slab and removing debris will be continued until the
entire area has been cleared.
xxiii) Clean-Up: Once the slab has been dismantled, work area will be clean up
and inspect it for any remaining hazards or debris.
xxiv) Upon the completion of the slab dismantling, the process of cutting and
dismantling the walls will commence.
xxv) To maintain one RC wall, cut adjacent walls before dismantling the
remaining walls. After cutting, dismantling of walls will be initiated from up
to down direction using hydraulic rock breaker.
xxvi) Concrete and rebars waste from walls will be handled and dispose of in the
same manner as for slab.
xxvii) Existing Items to Remain: Adjacent areas will be protected against
damages and soiling during demolition.
xxviii) We will control and minimize dust from impacting neighboring areas utilizing
water spray or other practical methods.
xxix) During the progress of dismantling, the work will be under the continuous
supervision of the experienced Site Engineer and Safety Engineer/ Officer.
Page 12 of 17
xxx) Load the Debris: We will use a shovel and wheelbarrow to move small
concrete chunks. We will have dumpsters depending on the amount of
debris to load and transport the debris at designated locations.
xxxi) Debris will be removed and transport in a manner that will prevent
spillage on adjacent surfaces and areas.
xxxii) Debris will not be accumulated on-site. All the dismantled concrete and
debris will be collected and transported to the designated disposal place
and site will be kept clean.
xxxiii) Disposal of any remaining debris will be in accordance with approved
waste management and local regulations. This may involve recycling or
disposing of the concrete and rebar separately.
xxxiv) Concrete Disposal and Rebars Disposal Separately: Concrete debris will be
taken to approve designated location or landfills that accept construction
and demolition waste. Whereas, steel reinforcement will be taken to
approve designated location or sent at scrap metal recycling facilities. We
can reach out to local scrap metal recyclers or scrap yards to arrange for
the disposal of steel reinforcement.
xxxv) Final Inspection: A final inspection of the area will be conducted to ensure
that the slab has been completely removed and that the site is safe.

debris ensuring clean and healthy work environment as well as to maintain free
access and egress in the event of emergency.
Safety Lighting: Safety lights will be used in case of power failure ensuring good
illumination for the personnel.
Risk Controls: Risk assessment and their controls are carried out for the
following activity/ hazards and enclosed with this method statement.
Danger Signs: Danger signs shall be posted round the property. No person shall be
allowed to work in an area underneath a floor being removed; such areas
enterances shall be barricaded.
Electrical Safety: A properly connected power source from a local electric utility
supplier shall be utilized.
