这次六月可怕的格伦费塔火塔火灾(REN 6 / 26-7 / 3页)的高层公寓楼的安全检查透露,在四个15楼的建筑物上,近50年前的精锐增强工作可能永远不会完成。新利18备用

伦敦的南葡萄园自治市主人,所有者已从Ledbury Estate建筑中卸下燃气用品,以防止在1968年5月在Ronan Point Block造成4人死亡的类似渐进崩溃。

The system-built, 22-floor Ronan Point had a primary structure of large precast slabs, assembled like a house of cards. And like a house of cards, an entire corner collapsed when an internal gas explosion on the 18th floor blew out a wall panel. An inquiry later that year led to calls for such buildings more than six floors tall to be reinforced and gas supplies to be cut off meanwhile.

Among the numerous U.K buildings identified for such retrofitting were the Ledbury blocks, then not in the hands of the current council. “All the reports we found suggested the blocks were strengthened following the Ronan Point incident,” claims the council’s deputy leader, Stephanie Cryan.

但是,基于伦敦的Arup Group Ltd的结构调查,在Grenfell火灾之后订购,“建议这种加强可能没有发生,因此我们已经关闭了天然气,直到可以完成进一步调查。”理事会还向政府官员撰写了警报,提醒他们其他高升高可能存在于同样危险的位置。
