There was no rain, no earthquake, and the three-and-a-half-story building collapsed. Before Deng, a 43-year-old cement worker, could react, the huge floor with a thickness of more than half a meter was crushed. After five hours of rescue, Lao Deng finally failed to survive and died in the hoarse wail of his wife and children.
It is shocking that there is not a pillar in a three-and-a-half-story building. According to the villagers, the building was originally just a bungalow, but it suddenly rose to three and a half floors a few months later, in order to "build it yourself and rent it to others." At present, the accident has caused 1 person to die, and 1 person was injured and sent to hospital. Panyu district government has ordered all relevant departments and towns and streets to quickly carry out large-scale investigations on similar situations.
Vertical collapse of a three-story building
At night, Daping Village, Shatou Street, Panyu District is still very noisy, and brightly lit construction sites can be seen everywhere in the village. Since a few years ago, rental housing has become the most important source of income for local villagers. In the words of the villagers, "everyone wants to build a house as soon as possible and wait for the rent."
At 9: 0010 the night before yesterday, several loud noises suddenly came from near the kindergarten in the village. Holding her granddaughter, Aunt Wang (pseudonym), who was walking home, was stunned by the scene in front of her. The three-and-a-half-story building collapsed, and soon only the scaffolding around her was crumbling. "There will be 100 meters, and I will walk over. It is really a life. " Aunt Wang is in shock. She introduced that the wall on the left side of the building suddenly exploded and the whole building collapsed vertically.
The collapsed building is located in Chaoyang Street. A few minutes later, a large number of villagers poured out of the nearest building. 20-year-old Adong (pseudonym) thought there was an earthquake, so he quickly turned off the switch and rushed downstairs. "Fortunately, he didn't fall to our side, otherwise dozens of lives would be lost."
The first village security guards blocked the scene of the accident, and then police cars, ambulances and fire engines roared. In the ruins, a man was rescued first, his leg was injured and he was quickly taken away by an ambulance. Just as firefighters were searching around, several women heard the news and asked about the rescue situation and shouted: "There is another person below!"
He showed no signs of life.
The first person who was rescued was Deng Weifa, a 39-year-old local who was the owner of the collapsed building. It was verified that Deng, a 43-year-old cement master, was buried in the ruins. 10: 30, the firemen who went deep into the ruins finally found Deng. He was deeply crushed under the collapsed two huge floors. Because his position is just on the edge of the collapsed part, there are obvious cracks in several walls on the second and third floors of the building next to him, and he may fall down at any time. In order to ensure their lives, firefighters decided to eliminate potential safety hazards before carrying out rescue. At this time, Deng's wife rushed to the scene with tears and learned that her husband was still alive. She roared: "Husband, hold on! Hold on! "
At about 23 o'clock, the cracked stones on the wall were cleaned up. However, after examination by medical staff, Deng showed no signs of life. But Deng's wife never wanted to believe it, because the fireman told her that her husband's body was intact and there was not much blood on the scene. "There may be saved. Please, help him. "
It was not until 2 o'clock in the morning that firefighters finally dragged Deng out of the ground. Unfortunately, he has no signs of life.
I escaped by installing a water heater.
Outside the cordon, the onlookers refused to leave. One of the men's eyes was wet and trembling. He used to be a worker in the accident building. "I was in it. I went home to install the water heater tonight. " The worker said. Deng Weifa is his good friend, and so are the workers in Gai Lou who help himself. "The countryside is always like this. When repairing a house, we always ask friends in the village who know something about cement work and water and electricity for help. Unexpectedly, hey. "
The worker introduced that there were five people in the building when it collapsed. After the incident, he learned by phone that everyone except Deng escaped from danger smoothly. At 2 o'clock in the morning yesterday, the search and rescue work ended.

The sudden collapse of the building for no reason made local residents feel scared. "If it is rented out and then collapses, how many people will die."
accident cause
This three-and-a-half-story building has no columns.
The reporter entered the scene and found that the building had become a ruin, with bricks scattered everywhere, leaving two reinforced concrete floors about half a meter thick in the middle. There is a gap under the floor, in which there are many clothes and a slipper. This is where Deng was buried. Strangely, the reporter looked around and found no pillars.
Workers who did not want to be named introduced that the first floor of the accident building was about 40 square meters, and about 1 meter above the second floor floated to the road, with an area of about 50 square meters. At the time of the incident, the building was preparing for external wall decoration, installing aluminum windows, and the scaffolding could be dismantled soon.
The villagers put forward many opinions about the cause of the accident. Some people say that the foundation is unstable, while others say that it is caused by inferior cement. In this regard, the worker introduced that due to the dense houses in the village and fear of damaging other people's houses, the foundations of self-built houses in the village were not piled, but dug by hand. As for how deep the foundation is, he doesn't know. When asked why there were no pillars, the worker said that the house was originally built according to the specifications of the bungalow, and later it was built directly. As for whether the self-built house has been reported for construction, both workers and villagers said they did not know.
Afterwards, the wife, daughter and son of the deceased Deng cried into a ball. "My daughter is only 18 years old. How will she live in the future? " Deng's wife groaned. As the pillar of the Deng family, his departure is undoubtedly a fatal blow to them.
