@@denverdubois5835 I'm sure there's a few ticking time bombs. I just really hope all this has opened their eyes to what such neglect could do. Unfortunately they wouldn't look at the people deceased from their neglect as the most important factor. It would be the possible loss of income they wouldn't be making if the building collapsed as well for their reputation. A damn shame this happened in such a modern age.. Not because of mother nature or a freak accident; rather neglect/greed. Something that could have been prevented if they looked at human life (customers life) as the most valuable thing. No, they're only $$$ signs until their neglect/greed catches up with them. Value money over human life is the motto.
@meckelbu3 жыл бұрын
Agreed, I thought of the same immediately when the presenter mentioned that the condo collapsed unexpectedly since the structure was weaker than expected, the implication being that it had such critically minimal structural margin left that normal pre-weakening and drilling for the explosives left it unable to bear its own dead load - so it's possible that in ten years time or whatever it might have collapsed on its own had it been left standing and occupied.

They cut supports one by one instead of cutting leaving some behind, that made structure very unbalanced (one side had all supports and other had none) so the roof fell, and because it was very heavy it also made enough force to take down the wall.

I beg your pardon! The CIA taught the world that in order to bring down a tall building straight into its own footprint, all you need do is hit it in the side with an airplane. This happened twice in a row on September 11, 2001 in a very public display. It worked so well, in fact, that a third building fell into its own footprint later that day WITHOUT the need for a third airplane. That's right, three buildings / two planes. So don't tell me that it's hard to bring down a building in a controlled implosion. The CIA showed the world that it happens all the time - if the politics is right.

I wonder how many of these buildings contain asbestos and how often it's 'accidentally' overlooked.

@Dutch3DMaster Жыл бұрын
In some cases the explosion site is sprayed heavily with water to stop a possible spread of asbestos. Not sure about the US but here all the alarms go off of they find it before demolishing it (blowing up buildings is reasonably uncommon here because the structures in The Netherlands are usually not big enough to do so, but also in the way of to much other buildings to do it reasonably cheaply. We did however try it with a quay somewhere, and screwed it up by using to much explosives, shattering windows and in a couple of cases cracking walls :P

Here this method of demolition is never used, and I think there are many reasons for it: - it is a lot of work to remove all dangerous materials (asbestos) - then more work to weaken the structure - then more work and expertise to place the explosives - you need to clear the area for the worst-case fall of debris - there is a lot of dust that has to be cleared afterwards - you end up with a pile of rubble that you still need to separate and move away All in all, it just isn't worth it. Disassembling the building piece by piece is as much work, cleaner, safer, environmentally friendly, etc. Even those destruction balls aren't used anymore. Better to use special equipment with hydraulic claws.

The demo company for the silverdome said the deadline was too soon and they had to rush to try to make it and missed something

They should have said “no thanks”. If they took the job knowing they’d have to cut corners to meet the deadline, then they’re at fault.

I lived close to the silo in Denmark when it became demolished, and it did some damage on the nearby, former building for storing goods. on the harbor. But during the new use for the area, it became a library, far away from most of the people using it!

4:54 wow! You can see the guy try to get up and dive for the safety of the crane basket his coworker is in as the building starts to collapse. Unfortunately he waits just a second too long to get running and misses the basket and goes down with the building. Damn that’s rough. Imagine being the guy in the basket too seeing a coworker desperately try to make it and missing.

I was living in Chicago at the time and STILL didn't hear about it. Lol that's Chicago for you though. It's ironic you live in Benton Harbor too. I moved my business from Chicago to Benton Harbor about a year or so ago, and I live in Coloma right near by. Benton Harbor is so much better than Chicago 👍

13:53... That building in Miami that collapsed on its own accord, are just like all the buildings in Miami. The greedy construction companies charge more money, but they build with really cheap materials, find short cuts, and hire inexperience workers. Casing point, Surfside Condo collapse and Florida International University pedestrian bridge.
