Scaffolding collapse kills one worker, injures sevenVietNamNet Bridge – One person was killed and seven seriously injured when a scaffolding collapsed even as workers were pouring concrete for constructing a house in Binh Dinh Province early today, Aug 22. A firefighter cuts the concrete block to retrieve the body of dead worker. “At that very moment, Phuong was pushing a cart inside and was ‘buried’ under a huge concrete block,” she told Tuoi tre (Youth). They used special devices to cut the concrete block into piles of iron and steel before taking out the victim’s body after almost an hour. Colonel Pham Dinh Trung said the scaffolding was too weak, causing it to collapse, as it was supporting a heavy load of concrete.
