This phenomenon is the most serious effect of the risk that may occur in construction. I presented this on the basis of an analysis of all construction disasters that have taken place in Poland in the last twenty years. I made a detailed analysis of the events that occurred during the maintenance of building facilities, taking into account the reasons for their occurrence and the effects they cause. The aim of this analysis is to identify areas of risk in order to eliminate the hazard and, as a consequence, take appropriate actions to counteract this type of events. Unfortunately, one should be aware that despite technical progress building disasters cannot be completely avoided in our surrounding, but one must use the knowledge acquired on this basis to minimize their number.}, type={Article}, title={Safety of Buildings and Construction Disasters}, URL={http://ochroma.man.poznan.pl/Content/115118/PDF/18_Paper_745_do%20druku_B5_met.pdf}, doi={10.24425/ace.2020.131788}, keywords={construction, construction disaster, safety}, }
