Must Know - Made in China


Dear Friends
PFA file about Poor quality in Piling work / Poor
Supervising in Checking of Steel Reinforcement which results a HUGE LOSS
and Very Bad Name about the Construction company. We always suggest
/advise / alarming about achiving quality in our works. 


Dear
All...

Anyone who bought an apartment here sure has a problem.

Talk about a collapsed market!

YES, IT'S An ENTIRE
13-STORY BUILDING IN CHINA LYING ON THE GROUND.


(1) An
underground garage was being dug on the south
side of the building,
to a depth of 4.6 meters (15 ft).

(2) The excavated dirt was being piled up on the north
side of the
building, to a height of 10 meters (32 ft).

(3) They dug right
up to the base of the building.
Then the rains came.

(4)
The building experienced uneven lateral pressure
from north to
south.

(5) This resulted in a lateral pressure of 3,000
tonnes,
which was greater than what the un-reinforced pilings
could tolerate. Thus, the building toppled completely
over in a
southerly direction.


*First, the
apartment building was constructed.*


Then the plan
called for an underground garage to be dug out.
The excavated soil
was piled up on the other side of the building.


*Heavy rains resulted in water seeping into the
ground.*


The building began to tilt. Then it began to shift, and the

"hollow" concrete pilings were snapped due to the uneven

lateral pressures.


And thus was
born the eighth wonder of the world.

If these
buildings were closer together,
it would have resulted in a domino
effect.

that there's NO rebar in the pilings!
Just some wire mesh.

They built 13
stories on grade, with no basement,
and tied it all down to hollow
pilings with no rebar.

Brought to you by the same folks that
make your kids' toys
and want to build your next car.
Now
that, folks, is a true snafu.
Don't you feel better now that these
are the folks that
manufacture nearly EVERYTHING we buy and use
today?

One more product from
"MADE IN CHINA "...!!
