What happens here

The crew begins the demolition and clearing process. Using a track-mounted compact loader, an ASV RT-75 Posi-Track machine, the remaining debris from the old retaining wall, including roots and organic material, is excavated and loaded into the machine's bucket. One crew member, Art, uses a rake and his hands to assist in clearing smaller debris and ensuring the bucket is filled efficiently. This heavy equipment is used to remove the bulk of the material, creating a clear and leveled area for the next stages of construction.

Goal: Remove remaining debris and organic material from the former retaining wall area.

that's the ticket there is a lot of misleading information out there and one of the most BS statements that I ever heard was about a Timber retaining wall and you see a lot of Timber retaining walls being installed around the country because they're typically a little less expensive than their modular block equivalents or Boulders but one of the most misleading BS statements that I ever heard was from a Timber supplier who guaranteed that their Timbers would never fail lifetime guarantee on any and all of their Timbers and then when you start to read the fine print and you really look into it that warranty that guarantee was null and void as soon as you cut the timber or as soon as you drove a spike through the timber so basically somehow you had to magically lick and stick those Timbers together and have them hold in place oh yeah there's more of them little bastards flying around out there yeah tell art to watch out for those because uh he did um ended up having a uh what was a mild heart attack uh what day would have that been Tuesday and I was asking the lady at the urgent care or whatever and she said yeah he gets stung probably not going to be that great of a thing [Applause] [Music] [Applause]
