Building And Ceiling Collapse
Were You Seriously Injured By A Collapsing Structure?
Any time we enter a building, whether it’s our own home, a restaurant, our work or anywhere else, we expect the structure to be safe. However, there are a number of potential issues, like poor maintenance, a construction defect, or other types of structural damage that could risk the integrity of the ceiling or the entire building. In these situations, parts or all of the structure could collapse without warning, risking serious injury to anyone inside or in the area like spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, or even death.

Common Types Of Building Failures And Collapses
Buildings and ceilings can collapse in a number of different ways depending on the type of structure in question. The cause can include:
- Defective Materials: Damage from prior use and/or poor manufacturing may result in the collapse of a structure.
- Manufacturing Errors: Issues including the failure to adhere to the approved design, poor workmanship, improper heat treating, poor material selection and incorrect sizing can lead to a building collapse.
- Failure to Consider Unexpected Conditions: Natural disasters, earthquakes, rain, ice, heavy snow or maintenance workers or occupants lacking the proper training to keep the building well maintained could result in this type of failure.
- Fatigue or Corrosion: The overall geometry or structural design or instability in the building material properties could eventually result in cracks forming at points of stress that grow and eventually result in total structural failure.
- Inability to Support the Load: Poor construction or poor architectural design could lead to this type of problem.
