Construction Accidents

There is not a week without construction site accidents involving cranes.
In fact there were 162 crane-related accidents in 2008.


The latest happened Tuesday 29 September at Balmoral Crescent killing a 40 year old engineer who was inside a container office.


NUS

The crane collapse last year at National University of Singapore (NUS) was almost a disaster although 3 workers were killed. The toppled crane missed the bus stop full of students by metres.
