The exterior wall of a triplex in St-Henri collapsed onto an adjacent construction site Monday afternoon, exposing the inside of the apartments much like a dollhouse. ()

Here is an expert from 污污草莓视频 University who can comment on this topic. 聽

Daniele Malomo, Assistant Professor, Department of Civil Engineering聽

"Old buildings in Eastern Canada have been built using non-engineered traditional construction techniques and do not feature the necessary structural details to withstand relevant vibrations. The recent partial collapse of a St. Henri triplex confirms that excessive and repeated vibrations due to nearby work sites can act as a stressor. A small earthquake centred in Montreal could cause analogous but much more widespread damage to the older parts of the city.鈥澛�

Professor Malomo is the director of , a cutting-edge structural engineering research lab at 污污草莓视频 University that works on earthquake engineering, old structures, climate change-adapted design, digital and experimental simulations. His areas of expertise include structural and earthquake engineering, old structures and bridges, and forensic and collapse analysis.聽
