13-story building under construction in Shanghai collapsed almost completely intact today, Reuters reports, killing a construction worker who entered the block of apartments to fetch his tools. The Chinese construction industry has been accused of dangerously shoddy work as the country rushes to build out its cities and infrastructure to keep up with economic growth.

Wow. It doesn't look like they are using any footings at all. And China is earthquake country.
