Concrete slab flooring not a danger in UG buildings
After taking an inventory of all University buildings containing potentially faulty concrete slab flooring, the UG concludes that these floors pose no threat. The UG carried out this investigation after a parking garage at Eindhoven Airport collapsed. The Ministry of the Interior and Kingdom Relations requested all owners of buildings constructed after 1999 to inspect their properties. The investigation confirmed that the UG floors meet the construction requirements.
