There’s other videos from the engineers on the millennium tower which they say the real problem was that it was originally designed to be a steel frame tower and after the foundations were laid they switched to concrete because steel was too expensive. So the foundation isn’t designed for the weight of the structure and the foundation slab is actually dishing under the weight. They said the building will eventually fail but everyone in power is pointing the blame at everyone else and nobody is taking responsibility when it should be torn down.

Another worthy project for this list would be "The Harmon" built as a part of the multiple billion dollar City Center project in Las Vegas alongside the Aria, Waldorf Astoria and the Veer Towers. The Harmon was famously labeled the worlds most expensive billboard. The building was supposed to be 49 floors, until it was realized that faulty rebar and other construction work had gone unnoticed by inspectors and affected nearly 15 floors of the structure. So the building was topped off at 28 floors, and since it was 2009, right in the middle of the great recession and the vegas housing market was tanking, MGM decided to cut their losses and just abandoned the project. the building sat as an abandoned shell, and quickly caught the attention of advertisers who wasted no time plastering the shell with ads. it sat for 6 long years as evidence in a series lawsuits until it was finally demolished in 2015

Millenium Tower, back in June, the troubled tower became fully supported on the north and west sides by a total of 18 piles sunk into bedrock as part of the building's retrofit project. Monitoring data confirms the fix has successfully prevented further sinking.7 Sept 2023

[@3321far]

I am not an engineer, but it seems negligent to me that a tall, heavy sky scraper was not anchored to the bedrock to begin with.

[@honeyyu1474]

Even you anchor it, foundation designed to carry the loads its either under or over design it will fail. Engineering is precise, no less no more. There are many factors to considered like windload, earthquake load and etc.

[@brkbtjunkie]

Plenty of skyscrapers around the world aren’t on bedrock.

[@darkwater72]

There are many places where the bedrock is just too far away. For that matter, most buildings do not touch the bedrock. "A building does not so much sit on the ground as float in it."

[@sparksmcgee6641]

Most are held by the surface friction of the piles along thier length not being supported from the bottom

[@jjMcCartan9686]

​@@honeyyu1474Earthquake code only applies to areas where that is a factor but the issue isn't the foundation its the change of the material make up of the building itself which the existing foundation was never designed to hold .I'd love to know who took the decision to go ahead with the new building without changing the foundation first .

I lot of people have gotten rich off the California High Speed Train. Going from 10 Billion to 100 Billion is one of the greatest bait and switches in history.

[@MrNoneofthisisreal]

In the nineteenth century, engineers noticed that there was a huge elevation change from the southern end of the San Joaquin valley and the hills (mountains?) just farther south. To transition they built the railroad way east into the desert and even built a section where the railroad crosses over itself in a big loop. The elevation difference is the biggest impediment. Hugely expensive to deal with. That is why they started the easy part first. In a relatively sparsely populated area we now have two major highways (Interstate 5 and state Highway 99), and an existing railroad paralleling the new 'high speed rail'. It ends outside of Bakersfield. This failure was entirely predictable. In fact, it was predicted. But there is no graft money in common sense. I'm glad I left California in 2008. No regrets. R

1:18 I get that the elevators would no longer work.. but the plumbing part caught me off guard

[@koharumi1]

Why won't plumbing work?

[@kindlin]

Imagine you have all these utilities, high pressure water in, sewage out, electrical conduit, etc. and the whole tower's side starts shifting relative to the ground next to it. Now, as said in the video, some vertical motion (settlement) is expected, so the joints have some give, the flexy-couplers have some length to go, but if you start doubling and tripling the settlement that was anticipated, and the problems will start to spring up like mushrooms after a storm. Not just water and utilities, but cracks, water infiltration, window damage, doors not opening, and eventually damaged rebar and possibly failing retaining walls and in the worst case, failing columns and even partial, or in some freak accident of mega proportions, total collapse.

[@sstolt64]

Plumbing drainage lines require a certain slope to drain property, usually a 1/4" per foot. As the building leans alot of these lines will start leveling out causing sewer to start back flowing to floor drains and toilets, also sinks will no longer drain. At that point the building is uninhabitable.

[@zaczayn3371]

Construction by far had to be the most corrupted field in many industries compared. I somehow amazed we r not seeing more towers, skyscrapers tumbling down like dominos. Not saying im look forward to that , too many innocent lives perish yet not all the responsible person's head rolls. Not fair... Since most buildings generally expected to last half century easily, im worried we going to witness those unfortunate events soon. But, by then, most that involved and responsible to commit such mistakes to max the profits, are long gone. Just left the residents to deal with huge losses (materially or lost of lives) and the ppl in general (due to tax increased by govmt to cover the losses), and the only thing to avoids this, is to avoid those as residential or business property. Take away the feeling of nonsenses prides saying that u r almost there successful to owns a small parts of the building (which will never be yours due to one sided mortgage, leasing t&c and all)

Regarding the lack of America having a high speed rail network: I've never actually even thought of that at all!🤔 I mean, high speed rail links are fairly common on this side of the pond (I'm talking about everywhere Eastwards, not exclusively the UK). But yeah, never crossed my mind that the US doesn't have something similar... 🤔 Plus, the state of a lot of the US rail track isn't exactly uniform, that I know from watching documentaries on here! 😐 But there must be so much track considering that it spans the US in all directions, and there's lots of privately owned track still too, leftover from the turn of the 20th century... (So train operators [state and/or privately owned companies] have to pay tolls/fees/rent to use certain privately owned sections in some places. And the quality of that track is the responsibility of the track owners, and that quality can be shoddy to say the least!)

[@livwake]

Is the UKs network considered high speed? I know we have good connections but outside of HS2 I didn’t think it was considered high speed

[@billwilson-es5yn]

The US rail lines were our local and state highways that tied into the interstate rail lines when people and products were moved by horse and wagon over dirt roads. The railroads subsidized their passenger service with the profits made from hauling freight. Railroads ended passenger service when paved roads and motor freight carriers reduced the amount of freight available to transport by rail. The small short lines returned their ROWs back to the state who then either took up the tracks or left them alone. The major railroads also abandoned ROWs back to the states where some tracks were removed to have walking and biking trails while others just sit and rust away. Some states are leasing the abandoned lines to small short line railroads that shuttle cars between the major carriers and provide storage yards for idle rolling stock. The US still has passenger service where needed and where there's enough ridership to pay for a good portion of the expense. Those use the freight lines but still need government subsidies to stay in business. The US doesn't have HSR crossing the nation since the cost would be astronomical just to transport a few people each day.

The problem very few talk about is the fact Concrete towers don't absorb the sway meaning when under wind load they rock on their base this is the root cause as to why they lean. The Original World Trade Center towers had a 100% absorption rate meaning when they sway there was no movement at the base at all.

Keep in mind that the Millennium Tower is not only in earthquake country but in an area that has a lot of liquefaction in the case of an earthquake. They haven't had a largish earthquake in that area and I don't think that building will survive the next largish earthquake. I think they need to take that building down and start again. You put your foundation in first and it needs to go to bedrock, especially if you're building a huge building like that. No excuses. If you didn't put the building solidly on the bedrock, it's your fault that it's tilting and not the result of nearby construction, although I'm sure that didn't help since you built a building that is floating on clay, which is effectively quicksand if you get the right perturbation of the soil. This situation does not bode well for the future, especially when they get their next big earthquake. Luckily for them, we're more likely to get one down south but there will eventually be another great San Fransisco earthquake and this building and anyone around or under it is screwed when that earthquake happens.

[@zaczayn3371]

What ever the argument and solutions will never b enough, since the developers already had a good deals with its financiers should anything bad happen. Ever heard a developer at this scales, who comes up with towers/skyscrapers proposals go bankrupt out of settlement? Nope?? then try research and if still not convinces, that means its rarely or almost never happened. They're coverED! The ones that bears the most losses, is the purchasers,residents and local citizens in general. Often times the financiers turns aways from loaners, insurances pays a sums thats absurds in figures, left the purchasers stranded in huge debts, while dealing with lost of lives if not unfortunate enough. Everything hints at the lost sides to the common ppl, never a win/win situation. Always, and if u denies this statement, its either u lacks of reading/ current world affairs, one 0f the cronies, or simply had too much hatred towards the humanity lol.

Other word, there will never b enough money to come up with a real projects that bring real benefits to masses, since there's not so much money in that,the best u could do is to come with half baked idea, pitch it with huge marketing and creates dreams, lobby it to the politicians, plastered it over with insane price tags and hopes the ppl didn't realized amid the fanfares,until its too late (approved by the Senate) then halts it half ways claims of under valued/running 0ver cost, asked for more money, twice or more..and hopes by then american accept it as their national heritage. Can someone tell me the last mega project done in america that generally accepted as brilliant project that many can claims benefits out of it, other than invading foreign country if that possible. Because many now argue the sole reason invading others country just to save its tanked economy, and the reasons are only come after, such as WMD threats and all. But its never wrong since its done right under its ppl blessing and nose.

I kept getting distracted by the name of the engineer: Mr Ron Hamburger. They should rename the Millennium Tower to "Hamburger House". 🙂
