It does still happen. We follow strict protocols, been building in this area and surroundings over 20 years and ALL our buildings still stands. Does not mean that all contractors follow rules and regulations, Most do. We have loads of health and safety regulations which we adhere to! Do not shed the whole country in the same light!!! Build with righteousness and integrity and not with corruptive ways …you shall reap the fruit of what you sow.

​@@kzp5249did the commentator say anything in GENERAL about SOUTH AFRICA? I suggest you read the comment again - slowly.

Its not done to slow cooling. Concrete needs moisture to cure, if you lose moisture it loses strength. If you wanted to keep temperatures lower you'd use an admixture

Prayer for their safe and sound rescue

@@AliKhan-qm3xz yes, thank you. X

In south africa criminals get away with anything

In south africa yeah its a lawless 3rd word gangster paradise country .where criminals are treated well and citizens like trash by a communists gov posing as a Democrat un corrupt gov for the last 20yr easy since Zuma era and cyril the spinless squirrel under mbeki and Mandela we were doing well enough

Prayers will help, will they?

Just want to add on what you said, Pathan. My mother always told us as children: "Never point your finger at anyone. If you look at your hand you will see more fingers points back to you" Let us keep all these people in our prayers 🙏🏻🙏🏾🙏🙏🏼🙏🏻🙏🏾🙏🙏🏼

They couldn't go in with heavy machinery when they knew that there were still people alive under the rubble, because it was too unstable. Four stories collapsed into the basement. Now that it is becoming a recovery mission, they are bringing in heavy equipment.

This is a situation that very rarely happens in SA.

Not true. Don't judge.

How many rescue workers did you count? Typical armchair judge 😂

Too soon to tell

Pray for the south Africa Please my Sweetie Angel 💗💞🥰🧕🙋🌷🙏

It was still being constructed. Only construction crew were on site.

Oh no, that would be called neocolonialism

Yes, there ARE teams who are trained from all over South Africa, helping, who have had experience world wide!! Sniffer dogs are working there as well.

Why international. Do you think South Africans not capable? There are teams there that help internationally. This is not an expansive area either

@@gillievano1612 There are certain teams eg. Topos (the moles) from Mexico who are world renowned, who are MORE experienced.That takes nothing away from the work done by the SA teams.

But was not BEE tendership this one

​@@siyathuse8389True I did my research as well

The company is white-owned! carry on then, you racist fariki!🙃

Interesting perspective, it says alot about you than the situation… it might be true and it might not be. But from my own experience I doubt thats the problem. Usually, I dont see buildings falling, as I work with architects and engineers. My first thought didn’t go to BBE… I wondered how many faults were ignored on the drawings by all professions or old revisions that circulated on site by builders without them knowing … construction site need a very organised project management and very strict or things can go side ways very quickly…

Do a follow-up on the story. You are in for a huge surprise, oh pale one in Africa. We await your sorry ass response.

What are you on about??

😳

Especially when the company is white-owned. Racist much! I wonder what will be your come back then.

They are not ordinary Jews they are the members of genocider army

With all due respect, what does what you are referring to, have to do with a building collapse in South Africa? They have an extreme left wing government.

Seriously... the South African people can't be held responsible for what the government did...most South Africans don't support the government...but hwre you are with a lack of humanity and empathy... shows the type of person u are

But the people who caused the incompetence were not ANC members for a change. So Palestine and Israel were not a factor here

@@RastaAfricanGentleman That why are people taking the traffic lights poles and selling ? you don't have police to stop those illegal activities ?

Buildings collapse all over the world including in African countries too. Engineers and companies that cut costs normally experience such cases.

@@RastaAfricanGentleman I agree, and we had a high-priced condo building collapse right here in southern Florida not too long ago, and it too was more than likely the result of greed/avarice. Still, there seems to be more such collapses in these African nations.

It’s your imagination definitely. This happens all over the world!!!

@@kzp5249 Some statistician will come along with the recorded facts and then officially either confirm or deny my speculation. We'll just have to wait and see.

It's your imagination.

You're ageist. Shame. Let her unpack her knowledge, insight and wisdom and let's compare it to that of the ancient ones. This is not a Hollywood movie. When she turns 50, she may t still want a job.
