Mehfil building collapse: Impact on adjacent buildings not severe, but immediate support required, says audit
Three days after the four-storey old Mehfil restaurant building collapsed in Sector 17-C, the National Institute of Technical Teachers Training and Research, Sector 26, which conducted a survey of the adjacent building, reported that damage to the structures was not very severe. The Mehfil restaurant building, which had already been vacated on December 31 after cracks appeared in three load-bearing pillars during ongoing renovation work, had come down around 7 am on January 6. The deputy commissioner had also ordered a probe into the Mehfil building collapse, seeking a report from sub-divisional magistrate Naveen by January 10. To stabilise the structure, the building needs to be supported with steel props of adequate capacity, as specified by the structural engineer, beneath the existing beams adjacent to the collapsed portion.
