STORYLINE:
People in Surfside, Florida have been leaving flowers, candles and pictures of the dead and missing from last week's condo building collapse along a wall, close to the site of the disaster.
Crowds of people gathered at the site on Monday night, close enough to the collapsed building to hear the constant loud hum from construction trucks and other equipment used in the search.
Authorities said their efforts were still a search-and-rescue operation, but no one has been found alive since hours after the collapse on Thursday. Two more bodies were recovered Monday, bringing the confirmed death toll to 11.
A federal team of scientists and engineers are conducting a preliminary investigation at the site and will determine whether to launch a full probe of what caused the building to come down. The National Institute of Standards and Technology also investigated disasters such as the collapse of the twin towers on 9/11, Hurricane Mariaâs devastation in Puerto Rico and a Rhode Island nightclub fire that killed 100 people.
Previous investigations have taken years to complete.
