Abstract:
A tool for demolishing a column, including a tool frame defining an interior work space. The interior work space is sized and shaped to at least partially surround a portion of the column. A support frame is disposed in the interior work space of the tool frame, the support frame including a tool support that is displaceable within the interior work space. A milling tool is rotatably disposed on the support frame and displaceable therewith to engage the column when the tool frame is positioned around the portion of the column. A hydraulic cylinder is attached between the tool frame and the support frame and configured to forcibly displace the support frame and milling tool within the interior work space. A motor is configured to rotate the milling tool.
