The wall, which has a length of 40 meters and a height of 2.5 meters, is thought to have collapsed due to water pressure, making the soil unable to withstand the load.
Later, if conditions are possible, the TPU manager will rebuild the sheet pile in the area.
"Actually, because it's just a water pressure, this is an area that doesn't work. The next day we will be plastered again," said Royani.
