缺失螺母和螺栓引發的2023年瑞典致命的建筑施工升降機事故
2023年12月11日星期一,在瑞典斯德哥爾摩北部的松德比貝格一處建筑工地上,一部施工升降機墜落至地面,此次事故導致多人重傷,并迅速引起了瑞典警方的關注與介入。當局于2024年7月3日星期三公布了調查結果,指出缺少必要的螺絲和螺母組件導致去年這起悲劇性事故發生的原因,該事故最終造成了5人不幸遇難。(Claudio Bresciani/TT通訊社轉自美聯社)
哥本哈根,丹麥(美聯社)——當局于周三宣布,去年發生在斯德哥爾摩的一起導致5人死亡的施工升降機墜落事故的原因已被查明。調查顯示,事故發生的直接原因是用于固定支撐桿的螺栓缺失。
瑞典事故調查局(Swedish Accident Investigation Authority)表示,這起致命事故“是因未能對升降機的安裝進行相關安全檢查所致”。
在2023年12月的事故中,位于斯德哥爾摩郊區的松德比貝格一棟正在進行施工的14層高樓現場,升降機墜落了整整20米(66英尺),且當時還有5人在升降機內。
該機構指出,根據其調查結果顯示,用于固定升降機支撐桿各部分的五個螺母及螺栓組件已丟失。僅僅是由于各部件間的摩擦力,才使得升降機井架維持直立狀態。
在事故發生之前,支撐桿一直延伸至九樓。據報告分析,關鍵零件“很可能”已經丟失。
事故發生時,支撐桿所承受的重量……超出了其結構能安全承載的極限,導致支撐桿部分脫離,進而引發升降機墜落至地面的事故,當局寫道。
目前尚無法確定是否會提起任何刑事指控,也不清楚具體何時能作出決定。檢察官辦公室正在就該事件是否違反了施工環境規定進行深入調查。

COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — A construction elevator that killed five people when it collapsed last year in Stockholm was missing the bolts that were supposed to hold its mast together, authorities said Wednesday.
The deadly crash “was caused by failure to perform relevant safety inspections of the hoist assembly,” the Swedish Accident Investigation Authority said.
In the December 2023 accident, the elevator plummeted 20 meters (66 feet) with five people inside, during work on a 14-story building the Stockholm suburb of Sundbyberg.
The agency said its probe had showed that five of the nut and bolt assemblies required to hold sections of the elevator’s mast together were missing, leaving the shaft standing only because of friction between its sections.
Before the accident, the mast was extended to the ninth floor. The assemblies “likely” were already missing, the report said.
“The accident occurred when the load on the mast ... became greater than the structure could hold, leading to the mast sections separating and the hoist car falling to the ground,” the authority wrote.
It has not yet been decided whether to press any criminal charges and it was not known when a decision could be made. The public prosecutor’s office is still investigating the incident for possible work environment violations.

哥本哈根,丹麥(美聯社)——瑞典當局稱,周一在瑞典斯德哥爾摩,一部建筑工地的升降機墜落到地面,造成5人嚴重受傷。
大斯德哥爾摩消防局的奧斯卡·達維拉在接受瑞典公共廣播公司SVT采訪時提到,事發時電梯內共有五人,“他們都受了重傷。”目前,關于他們受傷的更多細節尚不清楚。
救援部門發言人庫爾特·瓊森(Kurt Jonsson)向瑞典TT通訊社表示,一臺施工升降機在該市北部的松德比貝格(Sundbyberg)地區墜落了約20米(66英尺)。
警方表示,目前并不存在謀殺嫌疑,并已針對“施工環境違規”問題展開了初步調查。
瑞典媒體發布了現場急救人員的照片,現場已被封鎖。
該升降機制造公司的一位發言人向《瑞典晚報》透露,這類升降機在全球范圍內已安全運作了20余年,此前未曾發生過類似事故。

COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — A construction site elevator plunged to the ground in Stockholm on Monday, seriously injuring five people, Swedish authorities said.
Oscar Davila, of the Greater Stockholm fire department, told Swedish public broadcaster SVT that there were five people inside the elevator “and they are seriously injured.” Further details about their injuries weren’t immediately available.
The construction elevator plummeted 20 meters (66 feet) in Sundbyberg, in the north of the city, Kurt Jonsson, a spokesman for the rescue service, told Swedish news agency TT.
Police said that no foul play was suspected and a preliminary investigation has been launched into “work environment violations.”
Swedish media carried photos of first responders at the site and the area cordoned off.
A spokesman for the company that manufactured the elevator told the Aftonbladet tabloid that that type has been used around the world for more than 20 years, and the company had never been involved in such an incident before.
