I suspect they will have a concrete crusher on site. Crushed concrete is easier to haul than uncrushed concrete. I also suspect they will separate the rebar prior to crushing. Crushed concrete makes a great road base.
I also suspect they will have an aluminum shredder and something to handle steel rebar.
I understand the demo guys they hired are top notch. This is not their first rodeo. The secret to a good demo job is not how fast you can tear down it's how well you handle debris. Efficient debris removal results in efficient debris production. All predicated on if you have the proper debris production and handling equipment. Equipment breakdown is the unknown and can cause the whole operation to stop.
Here in Houston area crushed concrete is in such demand the aggravate companies will come pick up the concrete demo for free and will separate the rebar at the plants.
We recently purchase a crusher attachment for one of our excavators and doing the recycling ourselves for road base, construction entrances, and even rip rap for our Harris county flood control jobs. Saving a lot of money and gearing up to possibly start selling the rock ourselves.

“Crushed concrete makes a great road base.”
Someone needs to let LaDOT in on that secret.
The Evangeline Thwy. is constructed with nothing but crushed concrete!
Construction fencing was up today.
Heard that the club suite season tickets on 2025 once the stadium is complete will be $1500 per ticket actual price with a donation of $1500 to RCAF on top of that. Don't know if it is a one time donation to RCAF or yearly.
