Schools/Hospitals : 'Risk of Collapsing Concrete' Now Closing those buildings
 

[Dozens of schools which
'could be at risk of collapsing'
are 'told to be ready to shut down
at short notice until they can be made safe'
Hundreds of schools were built with
reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete]


[Dozens of schools that could be at risk
of collapsing have reportedly been told they
could be forced to shut down at short
notice if they are not made safe.
Hundreds of schools across the country
were built with reinforced autoclaved aerated
concrete, known as RAAC, between
the 1960s and 1990s, with the buildings
having a life span of around 30 years.

The risk of the 'crumbly' concrete, that
has previously been likened to a
'chocolate Aero bar', has been known
for five years now, after a
primary school in Kent partially collapsed
but now chaos could be caused for
thousands of more youngsters]

Honestly I have never known such incompetence, they had six weeks to shore up these builidngs and they wait until a few days before schools open to do this, shambles

Yes, many Schools could stay Closed
next week.

[Education Secretary Gillian Keegan told reporters
that 156 schools had been identified as containing RAAC.]

Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete

At least No Children Died.

It is the Wrong time to close schools - just as they return.
But it appears some roofs could crash down on children.


Some Schools without this Dangerous (cheaper) Air filled Concrete
will be open as usual.

It's some kids Birthdays and Christmas rolled into one.

Seriously though I agree with you, it sounds like a shambles.

The problem they have
is funding, they may need money meant for Ukraine War


Political reporter Christopher Hope stated

SkyNewsHD
reported 2 Hospitals in Wales
also have this dangerous concrete (RAAC)


Also, the Government
must do a Full List of Schools that have the danger.

Going to RAAC and ruin.

Yes The Metal rods inside the Cheapo concrete
goes Rusty, then it all falls down.

Chartered Surveyor, spoke live on Ch5HD AM 1st show.


Reports a School,
had a roof collapse
that started this panic.

Sky had a ‘concrete specialist’ on earlier and he was demonstrating that it was the actual concrete at fault … he was digging into the questionable stuff with a special tool .. it looked like he was digging into the plaster they put on walls rather than rock hard concrete

A court in Harrow
has had to close

Due to RAAC


SkyNewsHD reports 35 Scottish Schools
have had to close.

Ch4HDnews Live
reports well over 100 schools
and worse the Government
does not have a total, yet.

Nick Gibb Education minister
said a School had a RAAC roof collapse this summer
in August,
They have not been told which school.

It will take until Mid-November
to give schools Portakabins

Also on Ch4HDnews

Warren Thomas
Concrete Expert at Henderson Thomas Associates
He thinks the Government kept the truth
secret.

Buildings need urgent testing
by Professionals.

He even brought in real bits of RAAC
Into the studio.


Labour stated Nick Gibb was there in 2010
she said he cancelled the School Rebuild Program
set up by New Labour

Cheap Nasty Concrete named RAAC
