In the contemporary world, the relevance of dismantling and demolition of construction objects is determined by a range of factors that require efficient and innovative solutions in the field of construction process and resource management. The aging of the construction stock, built in the 1960s−1970s, necessitates a thorough examination and development of optimal demolition strategies. Such buildings, having physically and morally exhausted their resource, belong to objects that require special attention due to potential risks they may pose. With the aging of such buildings becoming a widespread phenomenon, the likelihood of defects and malfunctions increases. Demolition and dismantling measures are crucial for minimizing potential adverse effects and ensuring the safety of people and the impact on the national economy as a whole. Furthermore, Ukrainian society faces defining challenges such as military actions and constant attacks by the aggressor country, leading to significant destruction of buildings and structures. Moreover, this situation presents us with the task of finding methods for rapid and safe demolition of objects while preserving valuable resources and the environment for possible swift revival. Considering demolition not only as a necessary procedure but also as a means to achieve sustainability in the construction industry, the need for integration of innovative technologies and software becomes evident. Such tools not only optimize demolition processes but also facilitate careful planning and the use of the most effective demolition methods, reducing the overall impact on the environment and enhancing safety levels. The implementation of this program in the construction industry practice has the potential not only to radically change the approach to the demolition of outdated or damaged buildings but also to be a step towards creating a more sustainable and responsible construction sector. This tool allows considering all important aspects, from the technical characteristics of the object to ecological and social requirements, offering a comprehensive solution to contemporary challenges. In this regard, further research and development of the program could significantly contribute to progress in the field of demolition and reconstruction, opening new opportunities for enhancing efficiency, safety, and sustainability in the construction industry. In this context, the implementation of intelligent technologies and software for the optimal choice of demolition scenarios is crucial. The article aims to discuss and develop a program that will provide a quick and efficient selection of the most adapted demolition strategies in the conditions of destruction and aging of the construction stock, meeting the needs of modern construction and reconstruction. The research goal is to develop and present an algorithm and toolkit for intelligent selection of optimal demolition scenarios for buildings and structures based on the analysis of objects and their analogs. The research subject is the development and improvement of software for intelligent selection of optimal demolition scenarios in construction. The research object is the process of demolishing buildings and structures that are outdated and damaged due to military actions.
