What happens here
With the mini excavator and its hydraulic grapple in position, proceed to demolish the concrete block retaining wall. Use the grapple to firmly grip individual concrete blocks or sections of the wall. For dry-stacked or lightly mortared walls, this involves applying controlled force to pry and lift the blocks from their original positions. Carefully articulate the excavator's arm to pull the blocks away from the main structure. As shown in the video, the excavator methodically removes the blocks one by one, demonstrating precision in handling the heavy material and progressively dismantling the wall.
Goal: Systematically dismantle the concrete block retaining wall
