GRANITE....the Best Way To Bust It Out?

Strongarm

Just came across a piece of granite as the front step of a business that has to be taken out to make way for a wheel chair ramp.
Demo-hammer worked great on the concrete around it....but the time to get little slivers off the granite is not working.

Anyone know how to deal with it?
Thanks in advance..

(slab is about 4' x 2' x 16"deep)

Dig hole 4'x2'x16" under ramp

Bury slab.

The wheel chair access will be a small newly poured concrete ramp where the front step (granite) is currently sitting.

Tunneling out under the slab or whatever you are suggesting seems pretty impossible. I'm looking for a kick ass solution to bust it or cut it out.

Thanks for your time

Maybe one of these.


OR;
Throw some sections of pipe under it,roll it out of the way,dig your hole,drop it in,bury under ramp.

How about a bobcat & some chains - thats worth a nice chunk of change to a landscaper or mason

You could probably call a few & see if they wanted it (yours free is you remove it today)

Thanks alot everyone for your advice......
I ended up subbing out to a guy who used a gas axe with diamond blade to cut it into 3 and pop out.
no regrets on folding from that mission.....lol
