Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method for the demolition of vertical concrete structures. A moveable concrete cutting vehicle includes a carriage adapted to move along the top surface of the vertical concrete structure that is to be demolished. The carriage carries a cutting assembly that is moveable in at least two directions, such as a vertical direction and a slightly downwardly angled circumferential direction, which cutting assembly is positioned to make cuts through the entire width of the concrete wall of the vertical concrete structure. After a series of cuts have been performed, the carriage may be moved along the top, horizontal rim of the vertical concrete structure, and separable concrete blocks that have been formed in the previously processed region may be tipped off of the remaining vertical concrete structure to fall to the ground.
