1. SPOILER (sorry) Rize's not dead. She survived and healed although she doesn't hold much of a role.

2. Reaction time: just because ghouls are stronger and have a heightened sense of smell and hearing(depending on the ghoul) doesn't mean they have a faster ability to take in and analyze the things around them. Basically their brain works at more or less the same speed as a human's. A normal human would barely have time to think 'oh shi-' much less try and get out of the way in two seconds. The same applies for ghouls.

3. Rinkaku is an extremely fragile kagune. Kaneki (as made very evident by the manga) is an exception in every standard, so I'm not talking about him, as his kagune is severely strengthed by his dabblement in cannibalism. But in general, as a kagune, rinkaku is much more flexible and much faster than the most others, and can sometimes (although rarely) even surpass ukaku in speed. But because of this the RC cells aren't as tightly fused together, making it essentially very brittle compared to other kagune-types. So even if Rize had had the time to process what was happening and move her kagune to block the construction materials, at the height and velocity they were falling, her kagune would have been crushed and she would have met the same fate anyway.
