A 10-meter-tall (about 33 feet) and 30-meter-long (about 98 feet) crane collapsed at a Hong Kong Housing Society (HKHS) construction site on Anderson Road, Sau Mau Ping, Hong Kong, on Sept. 8. It fell onto several shipping containers that had been converted into temporary offices. The collapse caused three deaths and six injuries, including workers who were trapped for hours.
Government officials expressed their deep concern about the accident and are investigating the cause from the perspective of the structure of the foundation.
