The steel structure was separated from the 40-ton crane at about 9:46am in a shipyard building structures for ships located in Busan, the country's southeastern port city.

Three workers on the structure fell down and were dead, with one worker crushed to death, the Yonhap News Agency reported citing fire fighting authorities.

The cause of the incident is still under investigation.
