Abstract

Recently, technology advancement influenced almost every field of life, brings new tools and techniques to reduce human effort and risk involved. Similar in the case of Demolition industry, technology changed the demolition procedures significantly. Most of the Countries are opting new techniques for demolition operatives, which ultimately reduce the risk involved the demolishing process. Effective competency training modules has been adopted by the many countries to develop the demolition operatives skills, so the health and safety measure could be increased and also reduce the environmental impacts of the process. Malaysia has demolition procedure but unfortunately, the standards are not updated as compare to the other countries. This enhances the element of the risk in demolition procedures. The current study has examined the current standard demolition procedures of developed countries to propose a training model for demolition practices at Malaysia. Demolition operatives are highly skilled and trained through competency based training programs to reduce the risk involved during the demolition procedures.
