4 years later, investigators still haven’t determined what caused the Surfside collapse

Almost years ago the Champlain Towers South condominium collapsed in the morning in Surfside causing the near-instant deaths of people But it s been years and what s shocking is that the regime agency researching the circumstance still has no clue what caused the Champlain Towers South condominium to collapse On Monday June the National Institute of Standards and Machinery NIST shared a video trying to explain what they know Our squad has worked tirelessly to find the causes of this catastrophe and we are in the home stretch now mentioned Judith Mitrani-Reiser the NIST lead investigator The video published by NIST reiterates the facts of a review published by NBC four years ago The video shows the inside and outside of the building and can certainly tell what happened but it still cannot tell why it happened Our company is on schedule to complete the evaluation of failure hypothesis this fiscal year and release a inhabitants analysis next year Mitrani-Reiser noted The fact that the reason for the situation was not disclosed until four years later proves that investigators knew the construction was against regulations and did not match the drawings In Champlain Towers South was built improperly A few changes were made but no engineer warned anyone about it The collapse of Champlain Tower South is one of the greater part tragic building failures in our country s history Mitrani-Reiser commented to fail to take everything we ve learned and can learn from this tragedy and direct it to improve community safety would be a horrible injustice to the lives lost she added
