What happens here

After sections of the retaining wall have been demolished, the next critical step is to efficiently remove the resulting debris. Use the mini excavator's hydraulic grapple to precisely pick up the loose concrete blocks and any other rubble. Maneuver the excavator carefully, pivoting its body and extending its arm to position the grapple directly over the bucket of a waiting skid steer. With controlled movements, open the grapple to drop the demolition debris into the skid steer's front-end loader bucket. The skid steer, a New Holland model in the video, then serves as a mobile transport unit, moving the rubble to a larger dump truck, a designated waste container, or a temporary debris pile for later off-site disposal. This loading and transportation process is repeated until all demolished material is cleared from the work area.

Goal: Efficiently collect and prepare demolished materials for off-site disposal
