What is Skyline Plaza Collapse: Causes & Lessons about?

The document discusses the collapse of the Skyline Plaza complex in 1973 which was caused by the premature removal of formwork supporting newly poured concrete floors. This caused the failure of the 23rd floor slab and the progressive collapse of the entire building. Investigations also found deficiencies in the concrete strength. In response, OSHA tightened construction safety regulations which helped improve safety standards.
