A strong wind of 26 meters per second blows at the maximum instantaneous wind speed. Dozens of containers in a new port collapsed in a strong wind in Busan.
According to the Buoxide Solidarity and the Busan Port Transport Union, about 30 containers stacked 4-5 stories high at the Busan New Port Pier 5 (BNCT) facility in Gangseo-gu, Busan, collapsed in a chain like dominoes around 1pm on the 19th.
Fortunately, no one was known to be injured.
At that time, a strong wind of more than 20 meters per second blew around the Busan New Port, and the port authorities know that a stack of containers that could not overcome the wind collapsed in series.
A collapsed container was loaded with cargo and weighed a lot, so even during typhoons, no separate fixing was performed.
It is said that Pier 5, where the accident occurred, is an automated pier, and in order to move the collapsed container, a separate crane must be brought in from the outside to perform recovery work.
