NEW DELHI — An eight-story building in Bangladesh that housed several garment factories collapsed on Wednesday morning, killing at least 70 people, injuring hundreds of others, and leaving an unknown number of people trapped in the rubble, according to Bangladeshi officials and media outlets.... http://www.nytimes.com/2013/04/25/world/asia/bangladesh-building-co...

 

So much happening under our feet.  Daily collapses of roadways due to the severe bow stretch, severe rains, crunching and land subduction all predicted in Zetatalk and all happening now.  Last week in Utah a fatal road collapse killed a 14 year old girl and injured 2.  It's painful to watch the planet crumble but we all knew it was coming.

Buildings collapsing.........a daily happening too.  With responses about what's causing all these happenings ranging from, rain, human error, poorly constructed, yada yada.....BUT, that's not going to fly with people much longer.  As soon as Planet X peers out at us from the sky, people will remember all the things that have happened up to this point and finally somehow, they will connect the dots.  Some will be in extreme denial, others will be so afraid and look for someone to take care of them, and still others will stand up and be counted and prepare as best we could.  There's no wishing this away, there's only pushing forward to a better tomorrow.  While our infrastructure crumbles around us we need to learn to be more careful, tread softly, kiss your kids, love with all your heart.  We are IN IT NOW.

I live in a house built in 1850 and it isn't falling down.  Age does not mean collapse. 

100-year-old building partially collapses in Malone

By: Rachael Paradis

A building in Malone that has been standing for more than a century will no longer be a sight in the town. The building on Route 11, well known to many in the community, collapsed overnight. While no one was injured, our Rachael Paradis tells us why the town is in a rush to tear it down.


MALONE, N.Y. -- Neighbors in Malone stood in surprise, took pictures and even shared stories of a once popular tavern that started to crumble early Monday morning.

County Legislator Billy Jones said, "It's an old structure, it was a structure that was obviously unsafe."

The tavern/hotel was built in the early 1900'. It has been closed to the public for about 15 years and was condemned six months ago.

Franklin County Emergency Services Director Rick Provost, "We're unsure what occurred last night at 3 a.m. What we do know is this building has been on our list of buildings with issues."

Jones said, "Old things fall down."

Police closed off part off Route 11 to traffic and to people, out of concern the rest of the building could fall down. Some in the community voiced concern over why this building, along with others like it in the area that haven't already been demolished. Officials say it comes down to money.

Provost said, "The high cost of abatement for these buildings really makes it tough for the county or the village to take those burdens on."

Jones, "We just have to come up with a plan to start taking some of these building down so we don't run into this problem going forward."

The demolition is only expected to take hours, but cleaning up the area is a different issue. Officials say it could be weeks before the site is completely cleared.

 LAKE ELSINORE: Water leak causes street collapse

 

10:00 PM PDT on Friday, July 22, 2011

By GENE GHIOTTO
The Press-Enterprise

Temporary repairs to a section of Joy Street in Lake Elsinore are in place today after a 1-inch water line gave way, causing 80 feet of the roadway to collapse and the asphalt to buckle.

The leak, caused by a 6 to 8-inch diameter tree root, was reported late Thursday in a line that leads to several duplexes on Joy between Machado Street and Riverside Drive, and behind Machado Elementary School.

Water service was restored to the 34 customers early Friday morning, said Greg Morrison, spokesman for the Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District.

Water district and contractor crews spent much of Friday removing the damaged asphalt on the southbound side of Joy and laying down a temporary patch. The road was opened in both directions by late afternoon.

"That way the road will be open completely for the entire weekend," Morrison said.

Crews will return Monday and trench from curb to curb to permanently repair the 1-inch line.

On Tuesday, a paving company will remove the patch, put down new base and repave one side of Joy, Morrison said. Work on the other side will take place on Wednesday.

"That way on Tuesday and Wednesday we'll be able to keep on

Windhorst, Parsons Roadway Collapse: Cautious Testing Continues

County workers are testing for sinkholes but the work is proceeding methodically because of utility lines at the intersection, according to a Hillsborough County spokesman.

Several lanes at the intersection of Windhorst Road and Parsons Avenue in Brandon remained closed for the indefinite future as county workers tread carefully in determining what caused a section of the roadway to collapse July 19.

“We have to be really careful at that intersection because there are lots of utility lines in the area,” said Hillsborough County spokesman Patrick Murray. "We have a sewer line and a water line there and we have to make sure there are no other utilities, so we have to be careful drilling.”

At the scene, late afternoon July 22, barricades were seen at the intersection, with drilling under way.

Crew workers first believed a 16-inch sewage pipeline beneath the intersection might have caused the collapse of the 6-foot-square section of roadway on July 19, according to a county report.

But the sewer line was dug up and found to be intact.  Now the county is testing the intersection for sinkholes — but carefully, as Murray noted.  

Additional detours and lane closures are possible as crews dig up the line for inspection and any necessary repairs.

Motorists who must travel through the intersection are warned to expect delays.

Sewer collapse closes part of Lexington Road

At least one eastbound lane of Road near Etley Avenue and Cave Hill Cemetery will be closed during Thursday morning’s rush hour after a 48-inch brick sewer collapsed Wednesday evening.

Crews noticed a depression in the road before discovering the sewer had collapsed, and the area will be excavated Thursday morning, said Metropolitan Sewer District Executive   Bud Schardein.

He said it was too early to tell what caused the collapse, but age was a likely factor. That part of the sewer was built in the 1880s and could have been weakened from an unusually wet spring.

“With all the wet weather we’ve had this past spring, that has a tendency to undermine the mortar,” Schardein said.

Road collapse might have killed Colorado family

(2011-07-20)

(wpr) - Engineers say a large section of Wyoming highway where four Colorado family members plunged to their deaths might have totally collapsed in a matter of minutes.

It had been raining for hours Monday night when local authorities warned the Constantinides family, among others, about potential flood conditions near North Brush Creek Campground around midnight.

Not long afterward, the family's van drove into a washed-out portion of Wyoming highway 130 and was swept about 75 yards down Brush Creek. Laurel Constantindies and her three daughters died.

The husband and father, Alex Constantindies, who had grown up in Laramie, survived and escape the vehicle. He and a passerby later rescued Carbon County Emergency management Coordinator John Ziegler, whose car washed out while he was trying to assist in flood protection efforts.

Ziegler said he was "very fortunate" to have survived.

Bruce Burrows of the Wyoming Transportation Department says engineers are studying what happened to the roadway early Tuesday morning. He says preliminary assessments indicate the creek swollen with rain and snowmelt may have undermined the roadway over some hours and then gouged a 25-foot-wide, 9-foot-deep hole in a matter of minutes.

Downtown Shanghai building collapses overnight

By Tom Bannister

The top floors of an office building in central Shanghai collapsed in the early hours of Sunday morning. The building was the 'Sichuan Building' situated at the junctions of Yan'an East road and Sichuan road, close to the Bund. The collapse spread debris onto the streets, causing traffic problems, but no-one was seriously injured.

Officials said that both roads were still closed off but should be opened by Sunday evening. They also speculated about the cause of the collapse saying that building was currently being re-decorated and that police and safety administrators were looking into the cause.

When reporters spoke to residents, some said that they thought the collapse was an earthquake another said "this building is several decades old, how can it suddenly just fall down one night? It was lucky that it didn't fall on anyone."

The 'new normal' collapsing buildings an every-day event worldwide (Photos)

Not only is the cover-up about Planet X cracking, but so are buildings around the world cracking and collapsing every day.

Why is this happening? Planet X is very close to earth now, and the earth wobble has violently intensified, wobble or maybe now “earth tilt” or "earth slosh."

The number of buildings that have fallen prey to the earth wobble in just the past six days is incredible, and it is increasing. It’s time to stop looking at these events as isolated incidents. They are related and often occurring on the same day, at the same time.

The list of collapsing buildings below is for the period from December 14-20.

  • 12-14: Brazil, Rio de Janeiro – Partial building collapse in Niteroi
  • 12-14: USA, Massachusetts, Natick – Floor collapses at construction site
  • 12-14: Russia, Taganrogm – Three-story building collapse
  • 12-14: United Kingdom, Yiewsley – Scaffolding collapses at building site
  • 12-14: India, Mumbai – First floor of building collapse
  • 12-16: USA, California, Los Angeles – Floor collapses in apartment building
  • 12-16: China, Zhejiang Province – Five or six-story residential building collapse
  • 12-16: USA, Ohio, Martins Ferry – Partial collapse, second floor and right side of house
  • 12-18: Italy, Palermo (VIDEO) – Two multi-unit residential buildings collapse
  • 12-19: India, New Delhi – Partial building collapse in Lonikand
  • 12-20: Canada, Okotoks – House under construction toppled over
  • 12-20: USA, Missouri, St. Louis – Building collapsed onto another three-story building

The collapse in Palermo, Italy, is unique in that two multi-unit buildings cracked and fell at the same time, with little warning. Four people were killed and at least seven were injured. Residents said unusual noises and growing cracks in the wall worried them so they called the fire brigade, who called for an immediate evacuation of the building. A resident saw someone on one of the balconies a few minutes before building split in two, and it all came down.

In a little over a month, buildings, cranes, walls, and arches other than those listed above have partially or completely collapsed with regularity in Africa, Argentina (2 buildings), Australia, Azerbaijan; Baltimore, Maryland; Bangladesh, Cambodia, Cebu; Shuangyashan, China; Doha, Qatar; Egypt (two separate buildings), Ghana, Guatemala, Hawaii, India (10 separate buildings); Jakarta, Indonesia; Kentucky, Kenya, Minnesota, Wappingers Falls, New York; Nigeria (5 separate buildings), Norway; Pasadena, California; Ohio, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Tennessee, Thailand, United Kingdom, Washington, West Virginia, and Yerevan.

In September and October, there was a definite uptick in earth wobble events. Interestingly, these collapses coincided with dates that the USGS LISS charts were black with intense worldwide shaking.

Collapsing bridges, sinkholes, water and gas line breaks and home, refinery and manhole explosions, which by the way are also on the increase, sync up with these collapsing buildings, but are too numerous to include in one article.

These events are not isolated incidents. They are directly related to the presence of Planet X in the solar system and its ever closer approach to Earth.

This is the new normal. Get used to it and be aware. It could happen to you.

Lucky escape for Harrogate residents as gable end collapses in storms

- last updated Sun 23 Dec 2012
Collapsed gable end in Harrogate. Photo: ITV Yorkshire

People living in a four storey block of flats in Harrogate had a lucky escape when part of a gable end collapsed due to the bad weather. Falling rubble severed the mains gas supply and 12 residents had to leave their homes at Park View, in the town centre.

Fire crews, engineers and gas safety personnel carried out inspections and allowed most of the residents to return, but those living in the top storey have been forced to move to temporary accommodation.

North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service say the collapse was caused by "weathering."

St. Louis firefighters rescue woman after building collapse

Tillie's Corner Collapses One of the three buildings that are known as Tillie's Corner at Garrison and Sheridan in St. Louis collapsed on Thursday, Dec. 20, 2012. The collapsed center structure served as the main entrance to the neighborhood grocery store that Lillie Velma Pearson began operated in 1948. Pearson's granddaughter, Carla Pearson Alexander, had been working to save the buildings.

ST. LOUIS (AP) - Investigators in St. Louis are trying to determine if high winds caused a building collapse that trapped two people, including a woman who had to be rescued.

Firefighters were able to pull the unidentified woman from the rubble of the three-story building that collapsed Thursday afternoon.

Fire Capt. Dan Sutter says the building collapsed onto another three-story building. Fire fighters pulled the trapped woman out through a second-floor window. She declined medical treatment.

Wintry weather blew into the St. Louis region Thursday with strong wind gusts accompanied by mostly light but blowing snow.

Firefighters started evacuation after residents heard noises

Three killed, one missing after Palermo buildings collapse

Palermo, December 18 - Three people are dead and a woman is missing after two buildings collapsed in the Sicilian city of Palermo overnight. Firefighters have found the bodies of a married couple in their 80s and a 54-year-old man who is related to them in Via Bagolino, a street in the area of Palermo's shipyards. They are digging in the rubble to try to find another woman aged 74. The number of victims would have been higher if the firefighters had not ordered an immediate evacuation of the buildings after being called when residents heard strange noises and noticed cracks in walls were getting bigger. "Today the noises worried us more than usual and we called the fire brigade, who immediately had us evacuate," said one of the survivors, Giuseppina Ferrara. "A few minutes later it all came down". Seven people were injured, including three children. Rescuers managed to pull a small dog out of the rubble alive. Palermo Mayor Leoluca Orlando rushed to the scene of the disaster to help oversee operations. Twenty people were made homeless by the collapses. Palermo prosecutors have opened an investigation.

Desperate search for survivors after six-storey residential building collapses in China

  • One woman pulled from the rubble later died at hospital
  • At least one other trapped in the debris
  • Families complained of 'cracks' and were told to evacuate on the morning of the disaster

A desperate rescue operation is ongoing in east China's Zhejiang Province after a six-storey building collapsed today.

One woman has died in the accident, with at least one other woman believed to be buried in the rubble. It is unknown if she is alive at present.

The firefighters' efforts are being hampered by the sheer amount of rubble, as the woman lived on the second floor.

Despite officials telling the inhabitants to vacate the 'dangerous' building in the morning, it is not known whether all left the property.

The incident happened in Jiangdong district of Ningbo City around noon local time.

The Shanghai Daily have reported that the woman was pulled from the debris and taken to a nearby hospital at around 4.50pm local time, but efforts to revive her failed.

 

Inhabitants of the building, that was built in 1989, had complained to authorities of cracks in the framework.

This led to community workers instructing the 18 families who lived there, to move out of the tower block.

Hoping for the best: The exact number of casualties is unknown at this time as rescuers comb the debris

Ningbo is is a seaport city in the northeast of Zhejiang province, People's Republic of China, holding sub-provincial administrative status and separate state-planning status.

It's climate is described as 'monsoon-influenced' which can evidently affect buildings and other structures and the longevity of them.

The disaster will come as a setback for the ruling authority of the Chinese City, only two days after it negotiated a deal with the UN that will see it extend its sustainable development programme.

Fears will now turn to other buildings in the immediate vicinity, as there are a large number of tower blocks, all of similar build, that may be unsafe to live in.

Night falls: It is thought there could still be people buried in the rubble, so the search will continue into the night

A three-story building under construction has collapsed in the port city of Taganrog, killing at least five people and wounding twelve. Nine people are still missing, RIA Novosti reports, quoting the Ministry of Emergency Situations.

"Fourteen people have been pulled out of the rubble; five of them have died," the Ministry says. "Up to nine people may remain in the debris."

Twelve people have been taken to hospital; according to the local Health Ministry; condition of seven of them is serious to critical.

Around 30 construction workers, some of them foreigners, were reportedly at the scene when the building crumbled. Some of the workers were evacuated in the wake of the incident.

Up to 300 people are working at the scene searching for those missing and removing the debris.

The cause of the collapse remains unclear, but local authorities suspect errors in construction. The construction cite is reported to belong to a local investor who was planning to build a small-sized appartment house.

A criminal case has been opened into the deaths, citing charges of security violations at construction sites which lead to deaths of two or more people. Police are also checking if migrants working at the site have job permits and visas.

Taganrog is a port city of over 250,000 people on the northern coast of the Sea of Azov.

Building collapse kills 4 in Faridabad
Tribune News Service

Faridabad, December 11
Four workers were killed and eight others injured when a school building under construction caved in on the premises of the posh SRS Residency Towers located in Sector 88 today. Four construction workers had died yesterday after the wall of a pit collapsed at a stone-crusher unit here.

Faridabad Deputy Commissioner Balraj Singh said the number of casualties and those injured could rise further as more workers were feared trapped in the debris.

The rescue operation was on, he added.

The injured have been admitted to various hospitals in Faridabad, where the condition of one of them was serious.

Those killed included Gopal (25) and Deepak (35), both from Bihar.

Police Commissioner S Kapur along with the Deputy Commissioner supervised the rescue operation. Haryana Labour Minister Shivcharan Sharma also visited the scene.

Sources said the 500 sq yd plot on which the school was coming up was originally a playground, but the SRS management allegedly leased it out to Sukhversa Malhotra of Delhi, who was constructing the school.

Faridabad SDM S Sarwan said a criminal case would be registered against the SRS management and Sukhversa Malhotra.

A team from the National Disaster Relief Force (NDRF) was requisitioned in the evening to speed up the rescue operation.

Around 300 police personnel, including jawans from the HAP, were engaged in the rescue operation. Over five fire tenders and JCB machines were also pressed into service.

The Residency Towers comprises over 10 multi-storeyed buildings. As a precautionary measure, the authorities have temporarily evacuated the two towers adjoining the ill-fated school building.

Gopal Mishra, a vegetable vendor who witnessed incident, said the structure crashed suddenly, leaving little time for the workers to escape.

The authorities said the exact cause of the collapse was not yet known but suspected inadequacy of plinth or sandy nature of the soil to be behind the accident.
