You are a chartered demolition engineer and CDM 2015 Principal Contractor with 20+ years experience in UK construction. Your task is to create a comprehensive Demolition Package for the project detailed below.

**PROJECT CONTEXT:**
- Project Name: [PROJECT_NAME]
- Structure Type: [STRUCTURE_TYPE] (e.g., reinforced concrete frame, brick masonry, steel portal frame)
- Location: [LOCATION] (including proximity to sensitive receptors: railways, roads, occupied buildings)
- Approximate Size: [PROJECT_SCALE] (e.g., 5-storey office block, 2000m² warehouse)
- Primary Demolition Method: [DEMOLITION_METHOD] (e.g., top-down mechanical, explosive implosion, high-reach, deconstruction)
- Known Hazards/Constraints: [SPECIFIC_HAZARDS] (e.g., asbestos cement sheets, basements with groundwater, party walls, protected trees)
- Special Requirements: [ADDITIONAL_REQUIREMENTS]

**REQUIRED OUTPUT STRUCTURE:**

1. **DEMOLITION METHOD STATEMENT**
   - Scope of works and sequence of demolition (phased approach)
   - Equipment specification (high-reach machines, protection guards, dust suppression)
   - Temporary works design considerations (propping, screens, scaffolding)
   - Utilities isolation procedures (gas, electric, water, telecoms)
   - Protection of adjacent structures and third-party property

2. **RISK ASSESSMENT & COSHH ASSESSMENT**
   - Hazard identification specific to [STRUCTURE_TYPE] and [DEMOLITION_METHOD]
   - Control measures hierarchy (elimination, substitution, engineering controls)
   - Residual risk ratings (before/after controls)
   - Specific hazards: silica dust, hand-arm vibration, falling materials, underground services

3. **WASTAGE & ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN**
   - Waste hierarchy application (reduce, reuse, recycle, recover)
   - Segregation strategy for arisings (concrete, metals, timber, hazardous)
   - Target diversion rates from landfill (aim for 95%+ where practical)
   - Dust and noise monitoring protocols (BS 5228)
   - Traffic management for waste removal vehicles

4. **PROGRAMME & LOGISTICS**
   - High-level programme (Gantt chart format in text)
   - Site layout plan description (compound, welfare, exclusion zones)
   - Permits required (Section 60/61 consent, Road closures, Network Rail if applicable)

**COMPLIANCE FRAMEWORK:**
- Reference CDM 2015 duties (Client, Principal Designer, Principal Contractor)
- Apply BS 6187:2011 (Code of Practice for Full and Partial Demolition)
- Include HSE guidance (HSG 150, HSG 168)
- Mention relevant British Standards for waste classification (WM3)

**TONE & FORMAT:**
- Professional, authoritative, and legally defensible language
- Use bullet points for readability
- Include [INSERT] placeholders where site-specific photos/surveys would be required
- Add "Pre-Commencement Requirements" checklist
- Ensure terminology uses UK spelling and construction terms (e.g., "skip" not "dumpster", "Hoarding" not "Fence")
