Ronan Point was a 22-storey tower block in Canning Town in Newham, East London, that partly collapsed on 16 May 1968, only two months after it had opened. A gas explosion blew out some load-bearing walls, causing the collapse of one entire corner of the building; four people died and 17 were injured. The spectacular nature of the failure (caused by both poor design and poor construction) led to a loss of public confidence in high-rise residential buildings, and major changes in British building regulations resulted.

(en) 로넌 포인트(영어: Ronan Point)는 영국 런던 동부의 뉴엄구에 있었던 22층 건축물이다. 1966년 착공하여 1968년 3월 11일 완공되었으나, 완공된 해 5월 16일에 18층에서 가스 폭발로 건물의 일부가 붕괴되어 4명이 죽고 17명이 다쳤다. 사상자는 적었으나, 부실 공사로 인한 실패의 여파로 고층 건물에 대한 대중의 신뢰가 완전히 상실되었고, 이는 영국의 건축물 관련 규정의 개정으로까지 이어지게 되었다. (ko) ローナン・ポイント(英語: Ronan Point)は、イギリスロンドン東部のニュオム区にあった22階建ての建築物である。1966年に着工し、1968年3月11日に竣工したが、その年の5月16日に18階からのガス爆発で建物の一部が崩壊して、4人が死亡し、17人が負傷した。死傷者は少なかったが、手抜き工事による失敗の余波で高層ビルの大衆の信頼が完全に喪失され、これはイギリスの建築物関連規定の改正にまでつながった。 (ja) Ronan Point was een 23 verdiepingen hoge woontoren in Oost-Londen. Deze werd begin mei 1968 opgeleverd. Een week na de opening vond een gasexplosie plaats waardoor het gebouw onbewoonbaar werd. Mogelijk was de grote schaal van de schade te wijten aan een constructiefout. De toren werd gerenoveerd maar werd nooit meer een populaire woonplek. In 1986 werd deze dan ook afgebroken. (nl) Ronan Point fue un conjunto de edificios residenciales construidos en Londres entre 1967 y 1968. Estos edificios estaban construidos con bloques prefabricados, una novedosa tecnología que se había iniciado en los países nórdicos construyendo torres. El 16 de mayo de 1968 una señora en el piso 18 se puso a calentar un té y un escape de gas produjo una explosión e hizo que los bloques del edificio hiciesen lo que en arquitectura se conoce como un derrumbe progresivo que provoca que varios bloques se derrumben uno encima de otro aplastando progresivamente las plantas inferiores.
