Continued Concrete Structure Demolition (Phase 2)

Do we Fire him?
What happens here
Following the initial concrete breakdown, the excavator continues to systematically demolish the remaining concrete pool walls. The operator demonstrates precision by using the excavator's bucket to push and pull sections of the walls, causing them to collapse inward. At one point, a pre-existing concrete masonry unit (CMU) wall is discovered behind the poured concrete, indicating layers of construction. The operator again utilizes a large boulder to efficiently fracture these walls into smaller pieces that can be easily picked up and loaded. This method is preferred for its versatility compared to a tethered wrecking ball, allowing for immediate follow-up with the excavator's bucket. The broken material is then processed and piled for transport.
Goal: Fully dismantle all remaining concrete pool walls and prepare debris for transport.
