Bert is an engineer and was currently on the site of the construction when suddenly he noticed that the floors started to become uneven and there were cracks in the weak spots of the house. A hole even formed near the foundation. He then ordered to stop the construction and demanded to barricade the whole building. He insisted that the barricade must have a radius of 5 more meters away from the house. What was going to happen? What were the signs? Why did he have his barricade farther away from the house?
