In another article it was noted that each concrete ceiling tile weighed 3 tons and was held in place with short bolts and epoxy glue! Yeah, that's what I want, three tons of concrete suspended over me by glue! My guess is that they ran out of duct tape somewhere along the way and found some old glue to use.

Isn't it obvious? They had some Super Glue and they remembered that commercial from the '70s where the construction guy's hard hat is Super Glued to the beam and he's kicking and hanging on to the hat for dear life.
If it's good enough for suspending a construction worker, it's good enough for 6000-pound concrete.
