finaly able to got rid of this concrete yesterday, and it now resting in local tip
there was reo in it, and bloody slab apperntly looking seperate were indeed joined by reo, which was making it too difficlut to shake them with crowbar.
but at the end job was done with Makita Jackhammer, spend about 4 hours to learn and break whole concrete.
so whenever using a jackhammer, be carefull, dont drill too down, always make cracks on side not in middle (from my experience now , LOL)
two times, managed to stuck bit in concrete, and that was not fun at all to take bit out of concrete.
her are some pics:

I started reading this thread 'cause I have some concrete to break before I do a decking job. I got more than I bargained for. I got all the information I needed plus some great laughs.
Thanks to everyone, bloody fanatstic!!!
Cheers,
Dr - 307.All decks should be stained....black white black white black white.......after all it would match anything!
All roofs should be covered or tiled.....black colorbond, silver mist, black colorbond, silver mist, black colorbond.........after all, we wouldn't want a mismatch!
