The Huai Khwang district office has ordered the construction of a housing project in the Rama 9 area to be suspended for 30 days and has prevented all unauthorised access to a building which collapsed yesterday afternoon (Sunday), injuring five workers.

 

Paitoon Ngammuk, director of Huai Khwang district office, said that they will take legal action against the project engineer for alleged negligence, after it was discovered that he was not at the construction site at the time of the accident.

 

He said that only some foremen were there, to supervise workers doing the construction.

The company director or CEO is the first person that should be interviewed....then the designer...then the on site supervisor, the engineer.

But really, a comprehensive site investigation must be conducted to determine the cause of the collapse.

Just announcing that legal action against the engineer for negligence will be taken, shows the level of incompetence that prevails here.

You obviously didn't read the whole article everything is being checked.  Engineer was probably supposed to be there and wasn't.

 

Will be interesting to read what they find

They mentioned that "scaffolding" on the first floor....seems a concrete pour was happening...so the formwork set up would have been there for a couple of days......
