Demolition Hazards (US)

Demolition is essential work that allows us to destroy hazardous structures or make way for new structures. Destruction can cause hazardous conditions for people on the site and the public. Take this course to learn about safe practices we use to ensure demolition safety before and during the work. You'll learn about how to plan for demolition and how to make safe choices during your work. This course is intended to supplement other training about specific project hazards and does not authorize people to perform demolition work on its own. Ideal learners are people who may work on, supervise or employ people who work on U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Projects or as a part of a demolition crew.
