One side of the form has collapsed, and the steel structure and the scaffolding ladder are tangled.
Yesterday (16th) around 11:30 am, the formwork collapsed at the construction site of a four-way dam in Angseong-myeon, Chungju-si.
During the pouring process of pouring concrete between the formwork on the opposite side using a pump car, it could not withstand the weight of the concrete and the formwork collapsed.
In this accident, 2 out of 4 daily workers who were working were transported to the hospital with 3 injuries, including being crushed by a mold, and one of them died around 7pm yesterday evening.
The accident occurred in the final stage of the construction of the Sabang Dam, which was ordered by the Chungcheongbuk-do Forest Environment Research Institute in preparation for the torrential rain in the summer.
[Site official: I was working (hammering) to make the concrete come out smooth and not to have rough surfaces.] The
Ministry of Employment and Labor is investigating the exact cause of the accident, such as whether the safety rules were not properly followed or the formwork itself was poor.
[Ministry of Employment and Labor officials: Whether it (the formwork plywood) broke and collapsed, or whether it was bent and broken as it unfolded (we plan to investigate.)]
Earlier, on the 14th, a 3-ton iron form fell in Pyeongtaek, Gyeonggi-do, and a worker in his 50s died.
