What happens here

Drive the ASV RT-75 Posi-Track compact track loader into the basin of the old swimming pool. Using the Hydraulic Grapple attachment, begin to aggressively break apart large sections of concrete from the pool bottom and sides. Carefully lift and move the broken pieces, which may still be connected by rebar, to a temporary staging area within the pool basin. This process helps to create a safe and stable working platform within the pool for subsequent demolition activities.

Goal: Break up and remove the main concrete sections from the former pool.

Tools and materials

  • Concrete Slabs N/A — The material being demolished and removed
  • Rebar N/A — Reinforcement within the concrete, requiring careful handling during demolition

What they say

hmm [Music] he's got to be very careful about how he grabs the concrete if those forks accidentally push that slab of concrete forward it'll basically destroy the retaining wall he's got to slip the forks in under the concrete delicately grab it and then peel everything off the challenge is is that one piece of concrete is all interconnected with rebar from one end of the other end so if he just grabs one side of it as he's backing it out the other side could twist and damage the retaining wall so he's trying to break each section of concrete free so that when he grabs it and pulls it away it gives him a cleaner line along the wall but less chance of damaging it [Applause]
