A while ago we removed some of the internals walls to permit better access to one of the side storage areas. The internal walls were built on top of a concrete footing which is reinforced concrete. While the walls were easily removed the concrete footing has remained in place until now. The footing sticks out and is a trip hazard but also narrows the gap into the storage area for trolleys.
We used a demolition hammer to break up the concrete, even then it took over 6 hours to break up about 800mm of footing. The rebar will be cut out next and a final bit of fettling should see this job completed.
While some of us were making lots of dust and noise others were trying to clean up some of the boats in preparation for restoration work. The Grieve dinghy was washed and hoovered out today (they were a way off from the demolition work).
We are preparing for an Open Day so some tidying up was also undertaken today.
