Strategy description: The process of removing building components and products part by part to avoid their damage and facilitate their reuse
Example: Removing old building partitions, ceiling tiles, and lighting fixtures systematically by demounting them part by part without inflicting damage.
Advantages: Selective dismantling increases the opportunity to reuse or sell the demounted products while reducing the need for implementing repair of damages caused by demolishing old building parts.
Disadvantages/challenges: This strategy can be difficult when removing building products that are attached to monumental elements by wet connections.
