Breaking Up Concrete Footings

What happens here

With the access ramp in place, a mini-excavator (Bobcat 325) descends into the deep end of the pool. The operator uses the excavator's bucket to chip away at the concrete footings, creating stress cracks. These footings are typically very thick and reinforced, making them resistant to easy demolition. The goal is to break them into manageable pieces for removal.

Goal: Fracture and break concrete footings into smaller, removable sections.
