SURFSIDE, Fla. (AP) — A team of technical experts from the federal government and outside specialists are going to gather building material samples and study soil conditions in order to determine the engineering reasons behind the collapse of a South Florida condominium building, officials said Wednesday.
The team assembled by the National Institute of Standards and Technology will gather evidence and analyze data in order to determine the cause of the collapse of the 12-story Champlain Towers South. Team members also will evaluate whether building codes, standards and practices need to be changed.
