Americans have horrible quality control and bark about the Chinese? Seriously? Why are our ceilings made out of paper??
>>
>>533808629
Ceilings are not load bearing. The issue is the lack of a walk space on the rafters above the ceiling. Could be either a build issue or the inspector is a minimum wage retard and placed his foot down where he shouldnt have. Makes no sense to put hard wood flooring in a space that will only hold insulation, theres meant to be a walk path though of some sort of wood that crosses the beams

They probably add more insulation over the existing joist to the point where you could not see where they are. And the fact that the guy fell right next to a wall makes me believe he thought there was a joist there.
>>
>>533809061
It's probably an electric water heater.
It makes senses to put it directly over what you want to heat; the amount of heat you lose because of the distance of the pipes is no joke. Also, gravity means you don't need to pressurise your hot water line.

>>533810591
sometimes they're called ceiling joist but they're not a true joist. they're wall (cross) ties that connect to the upper rafters.
they're there for strengthening as well however no one is laying down flooring on them. they're not designed to hold that much weight per section

>>533810675
It's hard to say where you are stepping if you are walking over poorly installed fibreglass insulation with just the light of your phone.

Also, there is also the hypothesis that he was stepping over a joist, but it failed with his weight. So many things could have caused him to fall (including his own stupidity).
>>
>>533810591
They’re often used interchangeably. Normally a joist is part of a floor but if someone says “ceiling joist” you know what they mean. It’s almost always the bottom chord of a truss since most American houses have been built with trusses since like the 50’s

Yeah, he did. Then years later, he accidentally fell through himself. The issue is that the attic is built in such a way that you can make a wrong move and fall through the ceiling. You're able to remain ignorant for now, and mightily proclaim "I know the RIGHT way to walk in the attic so that I won't fall through the ceiling!" But some day you'll be older, you'll have had a bad night's sleep, be somewhat distracted thinking about a personal issue or something at work, and when you need to do something in the attic, you'll accidentally put your foot in the wrong spot, and fall through the ceiling, because, obviously, the floor is constructed in such a way that you can fall through it.

that's a textured plaster finish. its tasteless but was common in the 1980s ceiling for some retarded reason, usually money reasons. talking to an old trade plasterer it was used because it was quicker than doing the job properly ie a nice flat ceiling surface. it looks (((finished))) but is quicker to finish the job.
in other words avoid these places as it proof and a visual indicator they've been built by coin cutting jews and retarded niggers to low standards

Are you retarded? Why would you make a thread talking about construction when you don't get that not everything in an attic crawlspace is meant to be walked on.

This isn't uncommon, its not bad build quality. Its a retard falling through the ceiling because he walked into an area under the roof that was only meant to support insulation.
