Turkey earthquake: UK engineers investigate ‘inferior’ building materials

BBC, 15 Mar 2023
A UK team of structural and civil engineers is traveling to the earthquake zone in Turkey to assess why so many buildings collapsed.

Turkish engineers have provided them with proof of inferior building materials being used in the construction of some buildings - including pebbles from nearby rivers.

The team will produce a report in a matter of weeks, designed to improve seismic safety once the area is eventually rebuilt.
