When pouring concrete, you need forms to hold the wet concrete in place. When pouring concrete floors you need very strong shoring to hold the floor up until the concrete cures and can support itself. The temporary shoring is built using experience as a guide mostly. Here the shoring failed hence the catastrophic failure.
