Weight of the concrete too much for the structure is my guess. Lowest bidder got those workers is what I would imagine.

Looks like they didn't do a soil compaction test. Possible sink hole or unstable ground.

maybe not waiting for the concrete to cure? You can see as the floor falls, that the concrete just pulls right out of the vertical posts, and the rebar is just left in place, sadly wondering where it's friend, the cement got off to.

That concrete does collapse in like it's soggy to my eyes.

Well clearly that building was only rated to hold 13 people.
