Demolition

The demolition of a building is the act of deliberately destroying it,
often in order to build something else in its place.( Collins, English
Dictionary)
It is the complete elimination of all parts of a building at a specific
location and time-typically it is the end of life for the building.
The destruction of structures, facilities, or material by use of fire,
water, explosives, or mechanical or other means.
Demolition is the act of knocking something down or totally destroying
it. It’s what construction crews do with sledgehammers and wrecking balls.
Not for the faint of heart, demolition usually involves explosives,
bulldozers and lots of dust and debris. The act of demolishing something
could be seen as a good stress reliever though, if plowing through drywall
or mowing over shrubbery is your kind of thing. Or perhaps you could join
'a demolition crew' hired to send the wrecking ball though buildings big
and small.
