Los Angeles, California (PRWEB) December 06, 2014

Demolition services have a buyer power score of 2.5 out of 5. IBISWorld market research analyst, Eric Delgado, says, "This score reflects pricing trends that are forecast to limit the buyer's ability to negotiate in six-year period to 2017." Other factors that negatively affect buyer power are demolition services' high level of specialization, the buyer's inability to use substitutes for most demolition jobs and the risks involved with switching providers. However, low market share concentration positively affects buying power.

While 2011 to 2014 marked a period of high demand volatility from the construction sector, price growth is anticipated to remain stable in the three years to 2017. "This trend is forecast to arise from stabilized demand for the redevelopment of brownfield sites, as well as an increase in government investment in infrastructure and institutional construction, which account for a significant share of revenue for suppliers of demolition services," says Delgado. This highly fragmented market also encourages price-based competition among suppliers, which benefits buyer negotiating power. However, as the economy continues to recover, demand from key downstream markets like nonresidential construction will increase, which will give contractors more flexibility to raise prices. Rising demolition machinery prices and employee wages will pressure demolition contractors' profitability in the three years to 2017. As a result, prices will likely increase further during this period and weaken buyer power overall. Major vendors in the market include LVI Services, Penhall and NorthStar Group Holdings LLC.

Because demolition work is a capital-intensive service in which safety is important, there are no viable substitutes for a qualified demolition contractor. Additionally, buyers that switch contractors mid-job will face high switching costs due to delays in project completion and new startup costs. Furthermore, the number of operators that have the capacity to complete large-scale projects is considerably limited. These factors negatively affect a buyer's ability to negotiate.

The Olympian (Olympia, Wash.)

Published: December 6, 2014

(TNS) Demolition began this week on a vacant building in downtown Olympia as part of a two-month military training exercise.

The project is seen as a win-win for both the city and the 555th Engineer Brigade from Joint Base Lewis-McChord.

The brigade expects to recycle more than 60 percent of materials from the city-owned building, located at 505 Fourth Ave. W. on the isthmus between Capitol Lake and West Bay. This week, the brigade has knocked down several walls inside the building while filling giant dumpsters with wood, scrap metal, dry wall and more.

The exterior will be demolished after the holidays. A ceremony with local leaders and dignitaries will begin at 10 a.m. Jan. 6 before the hydraulic excavator tears down the structure.

Sgt. First Class David Richerson said the exterior demolition should take about one month, adding that most of those materials will also be recycled.

Much of the treated wood from the buildings interior staircases, for example, will be donated to Habitat for Humanity, said Sgt. First Class Jason Jones, who was leading 22 brigade members on site Friday.

The project offers a rare training opportunity for deconstruction, Jones said. Typically, the military will build structures overseas, then demolish the buildings once their use is done.

GARFIELD Demolition began Friday on the husk of an old school building, clearing the way for an elementary school expected to reduce some of the districts crowding problem.

The New Jersey Schools Development Authority plans to spend $28 million on the future James Madison School Number 10, Authority Chief Executive Officer Charles McKenna said at the site.

The project has two phases, he said: remediation and demolition of the existing structure followed by construction he anticipated would begin before the end of 2015. The building once housed Most Holy Name School and for a time James Madison School.

The new school, at the corner of Passaic Street and Marsellus Place across from the Most Holy Name Church, will be the third in Garfield to receive SDA funding. McKenna said $69 million had been provided for the Garfield Early Childhood Learning Center and Garfield Middle School, as well as 12 grants.

The new building will have nearly 53,000 square feet of space, McKenna said. Superintendent Nicholas Perrapato estimated it would serve about 350 students from kindergarten through the fifth grade.

The school is expected to alleviate some of the crowding the district is experiencing. Of the 5,300 or so students in the school district, more than 1,000 are unhoused, meaning they are being taught in trailers or rented facilities, Perrapato said.

Were just getting overcrowded, Perrapato said of the situation. Mayor Tana Raymond agreed that the new school is much needed in our city. We are overcrowded.

The old building had some sentimental value for the superintendent and the mayor: Most Holy Name School was where Perrapato attended kindergarten through eighth grade in the 1950s and early 1960s, and where Raymond took Catholic doctrine classes in preparation for her First Communion in the 1950s.

Wearing hard hats, they watched as an excavator knocked down two brick columns on the second floor in what was once Perrapatos third-grade classroom.

Denise Petrizzo, owner of Tricon Enterprises Inc., the business contracted to demolish the building, said the process would take about a month: two weeks to knock the building down and two weeks to remove all the materials.

FORT WORTH (CBSDFW.COM) - A bridge demolition is going to create a massive traffic jam along a major North Texas corridor this weekend.

The 28th Street bridge is currently located over Interstate-35W, just north of downtown Fort Worth. But in a few days, it will no longer be there. Crews are demolishing the bridge as part of a $1.2 billion road project.

When the project is finished, the interstate will be wider for a six-mile stretch from downtown Fort Worth to Loop 820 to the north. But that project will not wrap up until 2018.

Work on the bridge begins at 9:00 p.m. on Friday night. The interstate will be shut down in both directions until 10:00 a.m. on Saturday morning. All traffic will be diverted onto the frontage road. And then, the same thing happens all over again on Saturday night.

Of course, this all assumes that rain does not have an impact on the scheduled work.

Barriers and equipment are already in place for the demolition to begin on Friday night. Anyone who is planning to be in the downtown Fort Worth area for an event or even holiday shopping should plan ahead for possible delays.

You can always check our traffic map to seek alternate routes.
