Systems for monitoring changes in the state of engineering structures of sports facilities can eliminate the threat to the life and health of children

According to RIA, on Sunday April 4, 2021, during the children's track and field competitions, there was a partial collapse of the roof structures in the Kirov sports complex "Veresniki" built 3 years ago.

As luck would have it, not a single child was hurt.

The probable cause of the accident is the excess of the design loads due to the accumulation of wet snow on the surface.

The Investigative Committee opened a criminal case under the article on the provision of services that do not meet security requirements.

The incident would not have happened if the sports complex was equipped with a structured monitoring system (SMIS) in accordance with the requirements of GOST R 22.1.12-2005, mandatory in accordance with Art. 46 of Federal Law No. 184-FZ.
