    It is Thailand LAW that the building was required to be built to the building code and that the buliding was to be quake proof this is going to take time for all this to unravel but in my opinion coruption is going to play a big part from the goverment to all the relevent contractors

    correct without a proper survey and an approved repair procedure they could make the column worse creating a plane of weakness and potential issues with structural integrity and water infiltration.

    dont you think its time for thailand to say enough is enough stop killing people because of coruption
  20. MikeandDow
    Ridiculous have they never heard of cold joints Cold joints typically occur when fresh concrete meets hardened concrete (or partially set), creating a structural discontinuity that can lead to many issues, such as water infiltration, decreased structural strength, and bad aesthetics. but to be fair you realy need to see the repair procedure at the least they need a bonding agent
  21. MikeandDow

    the plans were approved by thailand But any first year student will tell you that Table top design is not recommened for earthquakes and unstable soils and i think money changed hands not only for the approval of the design but also shoddy materials were used the project was rife with corruption and not only the contractors should be liable but also the thai goverment And if you are going to post lets get it right first time
