morning,

news says that authorities have allowed people back into the building that cracked on floor 10 yesterday.

However, they have not allowed people to stay in 51 units/apartments because of the danger of structural failure.

The block houses thousands of people.

Now - I could be wrong - but, if it's too dangerous for people to be in 51 apartments ------------ how in the name of god can the rest of the building be safe??????

What exactly would happen if one or some of those 51 structurally faulty apartments collapsed?

Would any of us like to be anywhere in the building if that happened? - How would you feel to be on floors higher up than some that collapsed?

Or, how would you feel to be eating din dins on floors below something that was structurally unsound and labelled dangerous?

in summary ------------- bugger that -

You cleaned up the conclusion for general consumption.
We were told the building had moved 1-2mm - the thickness of the side of a cardboard box.

Yet the lower level doors had jammed.
More like a twist than "move" maybe.
