Ban all buildings…

Postby 3WE » Thu Jun 24, 2021 7:06 pm

Building collapse in FL, USA.

I blame engineers and cheap composites.

We need more oversight, screening, training and (As “Bobby suggested”, fire Boeing executives!)

And, a double-post penalty for 3BS.

TeeVee suggested that oversight WAS lacking in the inspection dept.

I am also surprised it was not more failsafe.

I am also amazed at those occasional demolition incidents where the bottom floor is blown, and the building drops ~10 ft, but stays in tact.

A bit scandalous, and the collapse possibly not_a big surprise. :-(
