Selective and structural demolition.
Selective demolition removes exactly what the drawings say and nothing else. Load-bearing walls come out under temporary shoring, openings are cut for beams, and staircases are removed without disturbing the floors above.
On the ticket.
Temporary shoring designed to the engineer's drawings
Openings cut for beams, headers and stair wells
Load-bearing wall removal in sequence with the new steel
Dust containment and floor protection on every route
Debris out the same day, bins sized to the job
Lines, not guesses.
| Driver | What we look at |
|---|---|
| Span and load | How much wall comes out and what it carries. |
| Shoring | Temporary posts and beams stay up until the new steel is in. |
| Bins and tipping | Masonry and concrete fill a bin by weight. |
| Permit and utility locates | Whether we pull the permit and book the locates. |
The number comes from a site walk. Structural engineering is quoted separately after the walk.
Paper first.
- Any wall that carries load needs a building permit and an engineer's drawing before it comes out.
- We work to the engineer's shoring plan; the engineer is [Kam confirms: ours or yours].
- Pre-1990 buildings: a designated-substances survey comes first (O. Reg. 278/05).
The plates on every truck: WSIB, insurance, demolition permits, asbestos survey, utility locates, crew training.
[Kam confirms whether Breaker supplies structural engineering or works to the owner's engineer.]
It depends on which walls come out and how the shoring runs. We answer that at the site walk after seeing the drawings.
[Kam confirms whether Breaker installs steel or hands over to the contractor after the opening is shored.]
