Abstract - The demolition method used in a building depends on many factors such as land conditions, building type,ageofthebuilding,heightofthebuildingandworkplace, and most importantly, its location and the availability of its surroundingsandsecuritymeasures..Forsmallbuildings,this is a simple process using heavy equipment, but for large buildings, crushers, cranes, etc. will be necessary. Explosive demolition is the preferred method for demolishing large buildings and skyscrapers safely and effectively. A building explosion involves releasing explosives and allowing the building to collapse in on itself within seconds, minimizing physical damage to the environment. Controlling the demolition of buildings is necessary to ensure the safety of employees and the environment, thus reducing injuries and accidents.
Key Words: implosion, controlled demolition.

Eachmodel is designed for one lifecycle.Afterthis useful life,itsexistencewillbeverydangerousforitsinhabitants andthesurroundingbuildings.Buildingcodesoftencontain regulationsgoverningdemolitionprojectstoprotectpublic safety and ensure that adjacent buildings and areas are restoredafterdemolitioniscompleted.Buildingdemolition is an underground process that means demolishing or demolishing a building with the help of tools, machines, explosivesorguideswithoutaffectingtheenvironment.The destructionprocessthatoccurswhenexplosivesareusedis called explosion. It cracks under its weight. Explosion method is used for high-rise buildings in the city, other demolition methods cannot be used. When the building is demolished, the owner must notify the municipality and obtain permission. If the volume of the building to be demolishedislessthan1750cubicfeet(49.56cubicmeters), ademolitionpermitisnotrequired.

Themainideaof theexplosionistotreatthebuildingasa collection of independent towers. The Detonator places explosivesthatcauseeach"building"tofallintothecenterof the building. When detonated correctly, buildings will collapse and all debris will gather in the center of the building. Another option is to break one side before the otherinthemiddleofthebuilding,causingbothsidesofthe buildingtocollapseinward.

DETAILS OF EXPLOSIVES USED:
Onceyouknowwhatyouneedtodotoinflictdamage,it's time to prepare and select explosives for destruction. An explosion is a physical event in which energy is suddenly released, causing light, heat, noise and most importantly pressuretocreateanexplosion.
The most common explosives used in blasting are trinitrotoluene(TNT),pentaerythritoltetranitrate(PENT), and compound B (component B). When ignited, the substanceburnsveryquicklyandproducesalotofhotgasin ashorttime.Inthisstudy,PETNwasusedtocreatedamage.
