The Ministry reports that the collapse was triggered by an incorrectly configured shoring system. This failure led to an inadequate load transfer, which compromised the global stability of the formwork system currently under execution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Inspectors also noted a dangerous lack of corrective measures at the site following the collapse, which increased the risk of secondary accidents for workers and the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lack of permits and oversight<br>Beyond the mechanical failures, the Mived audit uncovered significant regulatory breaches.

The Ministry stated that the developers must fully regularize their status and meet all safety and legal requirements before any work is permitted to resume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read more:<br><a href=\"https:\/\/mived.gob.do\/mivhed-paraliza-construccion-de-proyecto-tuscany-palace-residence-en-bayahibe-tras-colapso-en-obra\">Ministry of Housing <\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/elnuevodiario.com.do\/mivhed-paraliza-obra-en-bayahibe-tras-colapso-en-proyecto-tuscany-palace-residence\/\">El Nuevo Diario <\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/canablue.com\/new\/tuscany-palace\/\">Cana Blue <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>26 March 2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Ministry of Housing, Habitats, and Buildings (Mived) has ordered an immediate work stoppage at the Tuscany Palace Residence project in Bayahibe, La Altagracia province.
