    Thanks, John.
    This guy really went at it and got a lot done. Nice he finally opened up the wall that's been blocking our view of what's inside.

      Yes, it was nice to get the view opened up. I've skipped a few demolitions where they were starting from the back, and I wasn't going to be able to see anything until the very end when they would finally take down the front wall.
      And it's just in time. The tree buds are swelling, and I won't be able to see through the trees very well when they do the final section in a few weeks.

    What is the pulling force of that machine?

    Using a shear for concrete to cut through steel?

    One of the slowest operator in this field I have seen. Seems afraid to pull on much of anything. Goes for the easy brick. Fights with metal and gives up to easy.

    Jika ada bangunan yang sudah usang dan membahayakan keselamatan kita harus merobohkannya mengunakan jentera atau apa yang sesuai agar tidak mengancam nyawa manusia seperti contoh yang kita nampak dalam video ini kemas dan tidak merbahaya sesuai untuk kita contohi

    It makes absolutely no sense that any demolition machine operator would use the machine to crush brick &/or concrete block. The mortar is only intended to hold the pieces together but, it takes less than any minimal amount of force to make bricks & concrete blocks fall apart from more of the same material. Some implements can crush solid concrete, cut steel & other metals & just pull on parts of a structure to make it crumble &/or fall apart. The good operators can make demolition look like child's play. The operators that pull & poke at a building & get very little done don't seem to understand the specifics of what can be done with almost no effort at all. Some actually look like they're "PLAYING WITH THE BUILDING" that's supposed to be demolished. Less effective demolition machine operators should have to watch videos of more experienced demolition machine operators so they can see what definitely can be accomplished. I'm also surprised that not all demolition contractors put a spray of water on the demolition dust created by their work. They would all be doing it if the cities they're working in were fining contractors for doing little or nothing about the dust they're creating.
