Reactions | How Do We Demo a Building Without Exploding Everything Around It? @ACSReactions | Uploaded 2 years ago | Updated 6 minutes ago
How do you demolish a massive building – in the middle of a populated city – in a matter of seconds… safely? Counterintuitively, you do it with explosives. We explore how chemistry, engineering, and more than a little artistry come together to safely bring down massive structures.
