Collapsed wood support damages gas piping
August 26, 2017
Gas
Reference Number:
5620634
Location: Surrey Description: Black iron gas piping installed horizontally on the side of a commercial building broke free from its supports and fell to the ground, creating an uncontrolled release of gas into the atmosphere. It’s highly likely that the use of wood as a supporting material for the black iron piping is what led to the gas lines becoming unstable and falling from the side of the building.
