Why they dont immediately remove rubble from a building collapse when one occurs.
In: Engineering
You mean after the immediate search and rescue / making sure it won’t further collapse operations are over?
Same reason they don’t immediately remove a dead body from a potential murder scene and bury it.
Gotta figure out what happened – insurance companies, lawyers etc. send their experts to investigate the rubble. To figure out why the building collapsed, if there is someone to blame, to figure out who has to take responsibility. If they would just remove it and clean up immediately they would basically destroy potential evidence.
