What happens here

A demolition grapple, referred to as the 'beak,' is attached to the skid steer. This specialized attachment is designed for heavy-duty demolition, allowing the operator to grab and crush materials. The operator uses the grapple to tear out and break up larger sections of the pool walls. The material being broken is identified as gunite, which, unlike concrete, crushes easily into small pieces, almost a powder-like consistency, making it suitable for later incorporation into the fill.

Goal: Utilize a demolition grapple for efficient breakdown and removal of larger pool sections.
