How do I demolish buildings ?

[Ajax]

I have come back to playing this after a break and now I cant figure out how to demolish buildings again, I cant see anything for it in the key bindings

Select the structure, there is an option to deconstruct. offhand it's like an X or something. But there is not a demolish option, as the resources need to be harvested from the building to remove it.

Bottom-left corner, looks like a poorly drawn bin.

Unless they changed something in the last update, you double-click the building to open the Larger Properties screen (I don't think it's on the Smaller one you only get for like hovering your mouse over it).

The very bottom row should be red and should include a trash can icon on the left, and it should read "Demolish" or something like that.

Know that the demolition is not instantaneous. Once you decide to do it, the workers have to come by and pick up the salvaged resources and take them elsewhere.

Sometimes the building will then disappear after a while, including the road connections. Other times, it'll just sit there telling you it's been demolished. I don't understand exactly the circumstances, but it seems more likely to disappear if it hasn't been there long, as in for example, you built it then right away changed your mind.

So from what i see, i realize this is later, once you scrap it. The resources used to make the building are still sitting there and it will remain a ruin until your workers move the materials somewhere else. You will see those rtesources as a stockpile. once the stocklpile is empty the building and roads will disappear.
