    This is a 100% on the framer. I wouldn't never frame a second floor without sheeting the exterior walls first, looking at this you can see there is not enough plywood bracing the house

      Yeah, it's not on the builder.

    they are not sheathing walls as they build them. that is why it collapsed. our framers build and sheath the walls on the ground and THEN stand them up and secure them together.

    I worked for ATT installing phone and internet services about 9 years ago in Ft Worth area. I would go up in attics sometimes. I noticed older houses seemed to have more bracing and just a lot more wood (2x4s) or whatever the size than new homes i would go in. I chalked it up to shabby construction.
    Im also 52 years old now and i remember when being a carpenter was actually taught through training. Now it just seems like anybody who can measure a board gets hired to build a house.

      In China, they are referred to as Tofu Dreg projects. It's a term coined in China in 1998 when bidding wars to get the construction cost as low as possible and the use of corruption to circumvent building codes. They are known to collapse even during construction. That includes apartments, offices, suburban houses, and infrastructure.

    Act of god but she is right a superintendent or project manager should have deemed it hazardous for them to work if conditions were not safe so it can ultimately fall back on the builder

      Build a house with concrete block reinforced with rebar and concrete, like they do mostly in Florida. Who wants a wooden house?

    I frame houses and I square and sheet the walls before standing, as long as the foundations level, the walls will be plumb. House can catch a lot of wind creating lateral forces, leading to this.

      Workers are contractors or working for a contractor. Builder not responsible for their safety!

    Definitely not the weather, Houses don't just fall apart because of typical weather like a little rain or wind, all the other houses were standing just fine, this is the only house that collapsed and it's because of poor framing.

    Companies can’t even pay the respects to those who were working for them. That’s the least they can do, and file a billion dollar lawsuit and settle for a cool 50 million make sure the lawyers don’t get more than 10 million.

    This way of building houses is a US thing ?
    In the bahamas this is a no, no .
    You have to strengthen the lower level before you go up. You do that by bracing off and sheeting it with plywood

  • @kgraydakota
    @kgraydakota Год назад

    I think that this might have been prevented if they put sheathing on the walls as they erected them.

    That OSB sure is a lot heavier than the thick 2x8 boards used back in the 1970s. But OSB is stronger and cheaper we have to use it do you? Gravity,weight,crash newtons law. OSB out in the rain for 2 weeks Nails ripping through sawdust boards held together with glue oh what rain for 2 weeks can do to a building left out exposed to moisture. Cheap awful flimsy materials the 21st century

    We work on the front end of a lot of Houston area master planned communities. I can't tell you with all certainty, safety is the last thing any of the home builders or developers are worried about. Money is their only concern.
