Construction in Korea

Monday, February 6th, 2012

It is interesting to see how different countries build and destroy their structures.  The standards and methods are different here.  The biggest thing that I have seen is the management of dust generated by the tearing down of buildings.

 

 

Here you see a excavator with a jackhammer on the end breaking up the floor it is on.  I should mention that you are looking at the second floor of a building.  I am curious as to how it got up there but I digress.  You will also see two guys spraying water on the process.  This is a rather simple and novel way to manage dust from getting into surrounding areas.

You might be tempted to see this as a new building but in fact, it is an old one being torn down.

Then I saw this also one day:

Don’t know what they were for but at a guess, bars waiting to be smelted into some for?  Looks safe enough to transport right?
