There was an earthquake in Taiwan last month in which a high rise under construction collapsed.

Same thing happened in Thailand! Mr. Green They just arrested 17 people responsible for shoddy construction.

Re: “Instead, the searing inferno caused the steel beams and girders to thermally expand and eventually buckle. This in turn led to a ‘cascade of floor failures’ and the building’s collapse.”
There was an earthquake in Taiwan last month in which a high rise under construction collapsed. What I've read is that it shouldn't have collapsed. But it did. Taiwan is now accusing its Chinese builders of using inferior materials.

So, maybe that's what happened with Building 7. It shouldn't have collapsed, but if it was made of inferior materials or shoddy workmanship, it could have.
