Due to the rise in construction projects and contracting operations in the last 30 years, demolition has become a major industry in the modern developed world. This book by Diven (40 year
veteran in the industry) and Shaurette (building construction management, Perdue U.) covers the gamut of modern demolition, including: demolition practices, regulations, construction types,
equipment, contracting, and demolition safety. This book was written in partnership with the National Demolition Association and is intended for construction management and engineering
students. Annotation 穢2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
