Allyn Kilsheimer, a structural engineer, was hired by the town of Surfside to investigate the building that collapsed last month in Florida. However, he was denied access because the police were still finishing up their investigation.

Kilsheimer told CNN’s Ana Cabrera:

“Until they do their job, we can’t go in to do samples of materials and take those samples and test them to understand what the various components of the building that came down was.”

He went on and stated:

“What I’d like to have the access to first is the basement slab of the building, to go in there to do the exploratory testing of the ground, the power foundations and all that stuff to understand.”
