Construction Fails exhibits catastrophic failures from building sites around the world, and shows the danger of ever-growing modern construction.

Cranes topple, structures crumble, huge machines go hay-wire — even professionals make mistakes, and sometimes disaster is unavoidable. Gathering from building sites all over the globe to show failure of all shapes and sizes, we dive into the mechanics and causes for unmitigated calamity.

Construction Fails explores just how and why these accidents occur, and explores the extent of the damage. Skipping safety inspections, ignoring building codes, and poor planning are just some of the causes for these disasters but all disasters come at a high cost. From small propane tank explosions — to runaway bulldozers — to entire projects crumbling to dust, we show what happens when Construction Fails!
