If got casualty , will have e stop work order for at least 2 weeks, on top of it , the work can only commence after the investigation , and reinstate to safe working condition. That may take at least 2 -3 months..

Given the developer always have float in their master schedule , it unlikely to delay the overall milestone ...

Some Buyers are however superstitious if the site got such record....
