SpaceCadetBob posted:https://www.laopinion.net/colapsa-edificio-en-miami-beach/ It looks a lot like a cover-subsistence sinkhole  How do you even plan for something like that happening? Support beams that go 100 feet into the ground?

BigBallChunkyTime posted:If it was overnight I'd imagine so, seeing as most people would be home in bed. I've also read that these beachfront condo buildings are largely full of short term rentals and second homes, used more in the winter than the summer by people from up north. Hope that's the case and the occupancy wasn't 100%

I think this now surpasses the Hyatt Regency walkway collapse as the deadliest non-deliberate structure failure in the US. It's hard to imagine many of those missing people being found alive. gently caress.

It's weird to me that the death toll is still 4, are they not even through the first layer of rubble yet?

go play outside Skyler posted:It is not a concrete inspector's duty to recommend evacuating or taking any sort of emergency actions in their report. "Significant structural damage" is the universally accepted term for "this place might collapse soon". All they can do is point out weak points and mention them in the report, they shouldn't be the ones making the call. That's the job of whoever reads the drat report and obviously in this case it was a bunch of cheap fucks so welp, there you have it. Nothing gets done for years and no one gets evacuated. Could be something fixed by laws, if it were a state that doesn't hold an annual DEREGATHON LMAO at letting tenants decide in an HOA meeting whether or not they should fix the building that's about to collapse and kill them

Mr. Fall Down Terror posted:people like to say "a law should be passed to ban this, specifically" but the implementation of such laws is harder than most people think I dunno, I'm required to get my car inspected once a year, and it's only capable of killing a small number people if it fails. Seems like it'd be fairly easy to have buildings inspected annually and condemned if they're about to collapse  The inspector filling out a form that says "this poo poo is cracked yo" and handing it to the owner, a person who has a financial stake in ignoring you, seems bad. If there's no follow-up or condemnations, the law is meaningless.

Mr. Fall Down Terror posted:goons lose their tops when a mod gives someone a six hour time out for saying a bad word so lets keep some perspective here on how fast unpaid community volunteers can organize a major structural renovation of the property involving extensive permit applications and contractual bids costing millions of dollars how many times are you gonna post some variation of "buildings falling down is normal, there's just no avoiding it" in here

Chinatown posted:Gravity. How does it work? Alright this might be a joke post but lemme answer it seriously: Buildings basically desire to be 1 story high (or less) they don't like being too tall, think of it like a phobia of heights. A building that doesn't regularly hear positive, encouraging feedback from a building inspector will become anxious and depressed, and will at a moment's notice decide to become as flat as possible

My mom has a condo board but it's all adjacent townhomes so they vote on what color to paint the fence rather than on whether or not everyone ought to suddenly get crushed to death in the middle of the night.
