I read that the Purdue University planned to demolish this building since 1992. In Greece all these buildings are preservated by law and the demolition is prohibited. Maintenance works require building permission from the state and the cost for maintenance and repair is very high for the owners.

They can finance the construction of an ugly new building versus paying out of pocket to maintain a beautiful old building. Here in the USA, there is less respect for history and beauty. Everything is dollar driven. I went to Indiana University years ago which was very pretty.
Way back when I was young and wore a 36" waist pair of pants, we always put an old grader tire or something similar between the ball and the hoist line. This would relieve a little bit of the shock that was sometimes transferred back to the machine. Demolition contractors do not seem to do that anymore based on watching a few clips here.
Recycling the windows would have been a complete waste of time and money. They would have to be carefully removed then carefully transported to a recycling center. Shattered glass is not considered recyclable. And no one would want to reuse those single pane windows.
Now you know why your tuition is so high...They waste money on new construction when the cost of demolition would improve the building substantially...Being a builder for 3 decades, I would never want to tear that old girl down...Clean her up and upgrade the systems...

+Cameron Ohl Please verify for me, but it is my understanding that asbestos is perfectly safe. It is only when you disturb it, does it become a problem.
@styldsteel1 it depends on the type. Friable, or Non Friable. One type can become Airborne...stuff they use to put on insulation, duct work, etc. that can become airborne. alot of times when I deal with it, It is in a Non Friable form...usually mastic, or tar, used to stick stuff...floor tile, roof/window caulking, etc. that is not an airborne risk. plus water suppression helps minimize the risk.

The only thing I see popping up out of the ground are huge unimaginative glass boxes. That;s today's way of building buidings today. Stick a steel rod in the ground and hang a piece of glass on it. And if they really want to get fancy? Bend the steel and cut the glass to fit. What do you get? A big bent, crooked boring glass box. Yawn
styldsteel1 There are plenty of engineers who can design anything you want in both modern and traditional materials. It is the architects and the clients who want a more contemporary look. This could have been built looking just the same with modern construction. It would have proper cavity walls, proper waterproofing, and proper insulation. Platform floors to install computer cables. Proper fire protection and detailing. It could look just like this with dressed stone and feature bricks. It is the clients and architects who do not want this look in a building today.
The other thing we would do is lash some truck tires to the top of the boom so we would not have to listen to the hoist line rattle on the boom all day. This work is for patient old men. Some of the young operators would expect things to happen instantly. This is a job requiring the patience of a saint on some days. The guy operating this rig is probably an old timer. He has exceptional skill.
CML building in Melbourne Australia was one of my favourites. This method would not have made a dent, walls were 5 feet thick in places and solid granite. It had to be dismantled like a wedding cake.
Very sad to see go i love the history of these buildings its such a shame they had to go. They could have updated it or something. A very big shame the building will be missed
please tell me where the demolition of the building took place and what kind of building is being demolished with a wrecking ball ? in Moscow, old houses are no longer demolished like this
Min 5, hitting pilars vertically is the worst way to destroy , operator, move your crane side by side a little you'll make more work for less power. Even more in a brick building. From outside to inside in less time and with no miss hits.
that building took that wrecking ball like a champ, it took so many swings just to take out that one corner if this was a modern building i am willing to bet it would have came down alot easier.
Perdue is a great school. On colleges in general: the next time you see a college professor criticizing our consumer driven throw away culture take it with a grain of salt. Colleges wrote the book on wasteful ego-driven spending. By the way, the book is $250 and you must buy the latest edition.
That building looks too good to destroy; shame it couldn't be converted for a new use. Seems the way nowadays once a building is no longer earning it's keep. Didn't realise wrecking balls were still sometimes used (in Europe 360 degree excavators are always used to munch through a building except for high rise when explosives are used).
you may have been able to repurpose enad, but the power plant was full of asbestos, and most of the space was taken up by the boilers. it wouldn't have been possible to dismantle those without tearing the whole thing down.
Incredibly good operator. Understands the structure of the building and the physics of the ball. If this is a dying trade, it is only because of the lack of operators like this one!
Im susprized that the crane and wrecking ball are still used in modern day 2000's. Most buildings here in northwest ohio all get torn down with excavators with buckets or claws, neat piece of old technology still working
i respect the operator handling the wrecking ball crane cuz handling it well, but i think this method require more time. Should just go for implosion method or deliberate method
such a beautiful building, and yet another one gone. I guarantee only to be replace by a lousy stinking glass box. Yea kiddies, that's how they build buildings these days. Put up a steel frame and hang a piece of glass on it. And if the "engineers" want to get really funky? They will bend the peice of steel and hang a piece of cut glass to fit the bent up steel. I'm convinced there are no real engineers who know how to build buildings with real gorgeous architecture. So keep obliterating architecture like this building and better ones than this and put up more pieces of steel and hang s;more glass on it and BE PROUD OF YOUR BIG STUPID GLASS BOX. I"m done
styldsteel1 the same here in Austria! They always talk about Tradition but they destroy all the beautiful old build ins and replacement them with shoeboxes made of concrete and glass. Awful! Just to get more money because they have more appartments and garages to rent.
Yeah god forbid someone would wanna actaully let some sunlight in. Clearly your aspergery taste in architecture supersedes that interest. Also the interest of not dying of asbestos. You're an idiot.

Well this is the way we used to demolish buildings. Today we use high reach excavators with shears and quickly nip away small pieces, push over bigger sections.
Really it's a shame such a nice old building is being torn down. I feel almost bad saying it, but I kept watching and waiting for that top window on the corner to break. And he kept missing it by freaking inches!! Lol. And then he gets the two next to it. -___- The coup de grace was when it finally broke, I couldn't see the glass shatter. Heh
satisfying to watch. but the building didn't even look that old. and can be used for something else. i wonder what happens if someone got hit by the swing of that wrecking ball.
It's more likely that these wonderful looking buildings were brought down because they were in safe for people to be in .if it's not up to code and could pose danger to people and it's not fixable they have to come down .
Theres probably a good reason why they are demolishing it.... it is expensive to waste a building like that so a major problem must have come up with the building for them to demolish it.
I can see why the wrecking ball is in decline, that would take all day to knock it down at that rate, must say it would be fun swinging that thing around, reminds me of Miley Cyrus for some strange reason.
@@aaronhuffman4852 I used a headache ball one time on a small job with a smaller crane. I am a retired crane operator and had the privilege to operator some of the greatest cranes made including the Manitowoc Vicon 4100 on a ringer. I also used a small Koehring with the headache ball. It is true the Manitowoc is a well built tank of a machine but NO crane needs to be used like that. Side loading the boom and snatching the machine is just horrible. In my opinion, I would not take a crane used for this type work and put it on a job picking and hauling over anyones head. You would have to do one bad ass inspection for me to use it on a construction job. It is almost like dedicating a good machine to this type work. Might be where the old machines go to die. My son in law works for a large crane rental company. He rents cranes for large jobs that last for sometimes up to a couple of years.
