Demolition is a dirty word in the green building world. But what if we could deconstruct rather than demolish? In its broadest sense, deconstruction means any method of disassembly as opposed to demolition. Demolition involves wrecking as much as possible, whereas Deconstruction NZ takes apart material with care and salvages 97% or more of it for reuse. The alternative construction movement has been around for a long time now, but there's a new kid on the block: Deconstruction. Ever heard that term before? Let's peek into this trend of taking things apart instead of mashing them all into one big mess (that was lead paint housing siding = not good). Many people forget that taking something apart carefully so the parts can be reused, or what is called deconstruction, can be a big help in creating green homes.

Abestos pipe removal materials were difficult to work with but were widely used due to their strong tensile strength, heat resistance, and low cost. The dangers of asbestos came apparent in the early 1900s when lethal cases of asbestosis started making regular news headlines. There are no safe ways to remove or install an asbestos soil pipe but there are procedures you can follow t reduce exposure significantly. Asbestos was commonly used for insulation around many older homes until it became known that exposure caused fatal diseases like lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis. The main problem is asbestos dust can be created by sanding, sawing, or dry cutting (without using water) the material. Once free from its host material, the microscopic fibers break into much smaller pieces and enter the air. Asbestos fiber is defined as a fiber that is 5 microns in length or longer and has a diameter of less than 1 micron.
