Abstract
Portland Cement Concrete with steel reinforcement mats or rods used in airport runways, highways, and other objects need to have the cement broken up for recycling or disposal and the steel mat reused or the steel recycled. The pavement removal machine lifts the concrete off a roadbed and places it on an anvil. A hammer then cracks the concrete and breaks it into small pieces, which fall away from the reinforcing steel. The concrete and the steel are then recycled. The pavement removal machine has legs which are moveable between a road working position and a transport position and can translate the frame of the machine up and down. The hammers can be gravity drop or powered. The steel can be cut into sections as the pavement is continuously torn up at a rate of about 1 lane mile per day.
