In Tokyo, Taisei Corp. has introduced a safe and environment friendly demolition system for ultra-high-rise buildings that is considered by many as a turning point in the industry. Places that cannot afford conventional technics such as dynamite to put down the construction will be able to use the demolition method called Taisei Ecological Reproduction System or simple known as Tecorep System. It consists in having the building roof covered and reinforcing the floor main structural points to disassemble from the top to the bottom. Soundproof panels are attached to the external part of the construction not only to minimize usual disturbances such as sound pollution but also to protect pedestrian from a risk of a serious accident by a dust that might fall.
