(concrete) demolition hammer (or tools)
I'll suggest this based on the references below, but these come
s in all shapes and sizes, with varied names. You might want 'concrete demolition tools', but that is a broad category that may include other equipment than specified here. These are also electric powered, pneumatic, and other forms.
Tho you don't want the bands mentioned here 'Demolition hammer' 'Jackhammer' and similar... ;-)

Jackhammer was my first thought, too. I kind of thought it was too US only (apparently not), but it also seems too specific for your question.

Despite Deane's second thought, "jackhammer' sounds very US to me.
I offer this neutral, broad term to get away from specific chisel and hammer, and US usage (while recognising such usage may suit context).
