Noise Pollution Laws and Silent Demolition Technologies

Noise complaints can halt construction projects in city centers, near hospitals, or schools. New laws impose time limits on operations exceeding certain decibel levels (especially hydraulic breakers).

1. What is Silent Demolition?

Technologies based on "Crushing and Cutting" rather than "Striking". Since there is no impact noise, only engine sound is heard.

• Concrete Cutters (Shears): Silently cut columns.
• Drum Cutters: Shave walls without vibration.

2. Where Breakers are Banned

Hydraulic breaker usage is being completely banned in subway tunnels, historical restorations, and night-shift projects. Having "Silent Attachments" in your inventory will win you these contracts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Is a shear slower than a breaker?
A: No, on the contrary, it is faster. While a breaker strikes repeatedly to crumble concrete, a shear cuts and drops it in one go.

Q: Is a drum cutter silent in all grounds?
A: Yes, since drum cutters do not generate impact, they do not emit "bang-bang" noise or shockwaves regardless of ground hardness.
