The end of rescue operations for the building that collapsed in Dar-el-Salam on November 26 has been announced by the Tanzanian government spokesman.
The death toll stands at 29.
More than 80 people were rescued from the four-story building that housed dozens of shops.
Investigations are ongoing, spokesperson Thobias Makoba said.
The owner of the building, located in Kariakoo, Tanzania’s economic center, was arrested.
Similar incidents occur during the rainy season in the East African country and are often blamed on poor construction.
President Samia Suluhu Hassan has ordered an audit of all buildings in the area, where most businesses reopened since the search ended.
