No rim joists as well. Brutal framing.

What construction it looks like just big box of matches

As a Target employee for over 3 years, I can tell you EXACTLY that the building was constructed outdoors and DEFINITELY fell.

Blame the framers for this one. As a framer, you have to make sure the building has enough bracing support, especially when you know there is a storm coming. You need to brace the building up, not just to straighten the walls, but to make sure the building isnt moving. Clearly, there were not enough braces and probably none on the sheer walls. This was a very expensive F up!

Filth

God, imagine being an American and having a plywood house.

No braces by the looks of it. Even with sheathing they should be there until framming is complete.

Hey, the contrast on this video is impossible to see.

It's. Sitting over a window that's going to end in a disaster..

first floor is all windows, not sure it would have withstood that wind, even with sheathing. also, if it was sheathed, the wind would have had more to push against, and that first floor still would have had very little keeping it from falling in that direction.

i wish homes would stop being made out of wood

All that just to still have to fight to make 6 figures. Possibly the highest qualified, most underpaid job in the world.

timber runners between flanges in conjunction with the floor joists and hangers absolutely make a difference to the steel beam design. It is classed as fully restraint against buckling so you bet it makes a difference.

We use this technique and materials to build dog houses, here in Europe.

Still laughable. You can use less wood and have it much more stable if you are not trying to build everything from 2x4s and thin plywood.

whats the song?

GOAT 🐐

There is a guy on here who does home inspections... and my take away is that you should 1) never trust the builder about anything and 2) never trust anyone the builder knows, recommends, or has contact with and 3) builders are scumbags... and a quality inspector is worth triple the rate they ask you for. Easily.

Do you remember how many SE references did you have to get for the SE application? It’s such a big accomplishment to get the SE!

Dam.

That is a quite pleasing collapse. Almost ASMR.

Americans keep building houses out of wood while Eurpeans build houses out of bricks and concrete. Say, ever heard that true story of these three little pigs building first house out of straw, second out of wood, and third one out of bricks?

I would say thank you on each video, i passed the PE exam and your videos helped me a lot

Yeah we like to build with toothpicks here in the US

no wonder why major weather events cause so much damage... houses are essentially made out of a deck of cards now days.

I framed houses for many years and there is no way I would build a house with three levels and not sheet the lower levels first. Some people do not deserve to be around tools

Let’s collaborate ❤ I got some massive projects in the pipeline

and the big bad wolf huffed, and he puffed

I want a degree for watching this video

Congrats on the achievements!

Seeya at the bar, folks 🥲

Reason to not be a Civil/Structural Engineer.

It's always shocking to see American homes built with cheap, flimsy wood. It's honestly pathetic, especially since the cost ends up being the same as concrete or brick houses after currency exchange.

Look at the floor joists 🤣 I don't think there are 2 the same height

The way we build houses in America is ridiculous.

What state?

Thank you

Relaying on sheeting for all lateral stability is wild. Sufficient diagonal bracing for stability should be used in a quality building. Sheeting then provides extra but not essential stability.

why u build houses of wood ?

I’m guessing that Electrical and Mechanical engineering is under a different classification of engineering since they weren’t mentioned here?

As a professional dog groomer, even I know it failed due to lack of sheathing.

Land of tornadoes lets build a house from twigs

I don’t understand why Americans build with such flimsy, perishable materials. We build with brick, stone and concrete. Especially multistory buildings.

it's like america never heard or see the 3 pigs and wolf story

Hält von zwölf bis Mittag...

😂😂😂😂 wtf

American carpentry is crap, 500 yr a go in Europe you got better wood buildings

Stiff soil according to table 20.3-1 means Site Class D, I take it as since its says "When the simplified method is used" Use the 1.4 from that section.

Building a three story house in these modern times purely out of wood insane.

I've been in construction 25 years . That is just the tip of the iceberg . If I had a dollar for every clown in a pickup truck calling themselves a contractor I wouldn't need to call any more contractors ...
