The presence of more than 50% of unglued, painted and masticed floors indicates the potential for a profitable day of deconstruction.

EVALUATE RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURES FOR DECONSTRUCTION SUITABILITY

The Strategic Assessment and Triage Tool (SATT) allows you to quickly match residential structures to deconstruction services. The SATT was developed and tested on blighted buildings in Detroit — similar to the buildings we worked on through the Partial Deconstruction Pilot Project.

 

In the Springwells neighborhood of Detroit the combined side-lot setback between houses ranges on average from six to twelve feet. Close quarters make proactive communication all the more important.

NOTIFY THE NEIGHBORS

This editable door hanger will help you notify neighbors of construction and demolition projects and proactively share tips with neighbors to manage risks to their own health and home.

 

The general public is underinformed about the hazards of dust exposure, as well as the potential for dust to carry contaminants from construction and demolition sites. Spread the word, not the dust!

ENSURE THE NEIGHBORHOOD KNOWS WHAT IS HAPPENING

This editable one pager will help you notify the neighborhood of your construction or demolition project. Recall that dust carrying contaminants can spread beyond the property boundary of a construction, rennovation or demolition project.

 

Innovation in science, policy and program delivery continues today.
