Epic Engineering Failures and the Lessons They Teach
Summary
Modular, reinforced-concrete components can be manufactured in a factory, transported to the job site, and then assembled into multi-story buildings. But in one such 22-story development, a minor gas explosion dislodged a load-bearing wall, triggering a major collapse. Discover how this could happen in a building that was in full compliance with the governing building code.
