About building collapses
Collapses cluster around a small set of causes: unauthorised extra floors, substandard concrete, removal of load-bearing walls during renovation, water damage to foundations, and gas explosions. Trapped-person survival depends heavily on how fast heavy rescue equipment arrives.
Safety guidance
- Do not enter a partially collapsed structure; specialist heavy rescue teams are needed.
- If trapped, protect your airway from dust, tap on pipes or walls rather than shouting, and conserve energy.
- Report any known trapped people and their likely location to rescue coordinators.
- Keep clear of the perimeter — secondary collapse is common in the hours after failure.
