Best Practice Guidelines for Demolition in New Zealand
These guidelines have been prepared by the New Zealand Demolition and Asbestos Association (NZDAA) to inform employers, employees and others with duties under the Health and Safety in Employment Act 1992 about the precautions and safe practices that should be followed when carrying out demolition work.
It outlines the industry's current best-practice standards and procedures for the safe and efficient demolition of structures and buildings, also incorporating industry learning from the Christchurch Earthquake of February 2011.
The guidelines also contain extensive references to Australian and New Zealand standards, and to appropriate New Zealand legislation.
