Did I just see "you are welcome" on the door post
You are welcome to a cemetery or mortuary

There are so much architectural/structural lapses in the building from the second picture. You don't make a wall on a deckin part that has no support. It needs a pillar or wall under the deckin to support the wall up. The load must be balanced.

RIP to the departed soul
Sad

You are not entirely correct!

As long as it is NOT A LOAD-BEARING WALL, you can do it that way.
The problem of the building has to do with "poor quality of material" (incorrect mix of decking material - Sand/Stone/Cement Mix-ratio) used in making the decking. Iron content appears okay
If the Decking was solid enough, and the wall was not load-bearing, nothing will happen like this.

"Load-Balance" has to do with "Force of Moment" about a point on the decking, assuming the decking was strong enough.
that usually cause "SLOPING" about the side with excess load.
this Deck collapsed..... it did not slope to any side.
