>be muttmerican>decide to repurpose office building into residential>adds 11 new floors to a 60 year old building>pillars can not support the added weight and start breaking under pressure>building evacuatedwow good job. Another win for the USA.
>>538596109
>>538596109(((Who))) owns the building?
>>538596123so you're saying the building crunched down 2 feet and none of the windows broke? ok
>>538596291Exactly who you think
>>538596440See >>538596418
>>538596501what am i supposed to be seeing? the unbroken windows?
>>538596440If you look closely, the entire section sagged, but didn't 'rack' very much.
>>538596556Nah the sagging roof collapsing down and the bent support column inside See, the put the red circle there just for people like you
>>538596109China has the same problem which is why they cap heights of buildings
>>538596638how do the windows not break?? what kind of looney toon physics is this?
>it's just rubber glass goy. go back to sleep
>>538596109Greed and stupidity walking always together = guaranteed problems.
>>538596707beacuse the windows are not load bearers?
>>538596109You could probably get a sweet apartment for a good price if you act fast and buy the dip
>>538596109There are like 6 gorrilion high rise skyscrapers in new york city that are just finesure sometimes things go wrong, you learn from those mistakes and you improve on them
>>538596418That’s not a beam, that’s me doing a vertical split to show you my dirty asshole.
>>538596123Such a tiny little column, 10in square looks like a 30ft bay too high load.>>538596462>>538596109Looks like they added 17 floor above that broken column that was previously only holding up a roof load, now with an additional 2,500 kipsCrazy they thought this would work.
>>538598378THERES AN ENGINEER SOMEWHERE WITH SOME SPLAINING TO DO
China is probably loving this because they have building collapses all the fucking time lol. Their wumaos must be creaming their little panties.
>>538596109New York is not an American city anymore. It is a third world brown commie shothole. It will just continue to decline. The centers of prosperity are shifting to the Gulf of America. New York will be a dilapidated husk.
>>538598426The structural engineer best be jumping on a plane back to India.
Probably women engineers like the ones that "engineered" that bridge in Florida.
>>538598426One of them DEI Engineers so nothing will happen to them.
>>538598594>>538598378I can 100% guarantee there's some guy who spoke up, tried telling executives and was told to shut up because money. That's all it is.
>>538596440Those are load-bearing windows. How do you think the building is still standing despite the columns buckling?
>>538596806Glass is quite strong under compression. Those windows are holding up the whole building at this point.
>>538598681The scary part is that corner columns like this buckled one carry axial loads of only 25% of what the others carry
>>538597891THE BUILDING IS HIDEOUS TO BEGIN WITH THEY SHOULD TEAR IT DOWN AND MAKE SOMETHING ELSE
>>538598378>Such a tiny little columnIt originally only held the roof.Then they stacked 11 new floors ontop of it.
>>538596109Even without new floors, converting an office to residential drastically increases the dead load because suddenly all those open plan cubicle farms are carved up with walls, doors, expensive (read: heavy) furniture and appliances - this is Manhattan after all, and a Mahogany dresser ways more than some shitty particle board desk, as well as all the new plumbing, fixtures, HVAC...
>>538599384*weighs, not ways ffs
>>538598797The other columns and slab are holding it for now.If you like seeing a massive failures with multiple multiple warnings of impending death, NIST just released the final investigation for that condo in florida collapsing 4byears ago that killed 98 jews.https://youtu.be/derKcYl1-Hk
>>538599384well that makes everything much easieryou just set fire to the office furniture and carpets and the whole building will collapse into its own footprint in a matter of hours
>>538599384THE BIGGEST PROBLEM WITH CONVERSIONS IS THE PLUMBING PUTTING BATHROOMS EVERYWHEREITS A RETARDED IDEA WHICH IS WHY ITS ALMOST NEVER DONE
>hey .. don't sweat it, you have insurance right ?
>>538599125I count 17 above the failure point
>>538598529this is what the Jew does .. they run down districts, hold on to property borrowing against the land value to buy more .. they they buy up cheap .. develop and gentrify .. profitOnly they are going to do it to the whole city ... build the bug pods .. build giant supermarkets, put everyone out of business and run it like an open prison camp using ai like a Chinese factory city
>>538596109Hey, look at me, we are China now.jpeg
>>538599749...and it's cantileveredA woman did this.
>>538599538just shit out the window onto the plebs below
The 11 new floors were added in 1960 you giant faggota thread died for this
>>538597615>buy the dipI… see what you did there
>>538600139And now they are currently adding more, dicklet.
>>538596123How did that colum crumple without anything else having shifted around it? The ceiling should be like a foot lower, the windows should have shattered along with their frames buckling like the column.
>>538600447No they're notm they're converting the existing space to residentialWhat a fucking tard, I can only suggest you locate a bridge and jump off iit
>>538597615>buy the dipIm all in
>>538601014>“They were adding 11 floors above the 22 floors,” FDNY Chief of Department John Esposito said.Yes, they are.
>>538596109This is literally every other building in China.
>pillersColumnsPajeet faggot.
>>538596291This is the real reason. They probably did this intentionally.
>>538601607Truebut this mfer is in Manhattan
Favela engineering?
>>538599070It is hideous. Looks like a patchwork for no apparent reason. Like Twoface. No symmetry, and built in a clashing style, because the addition was to make an addition.
>>538601607Every other person in the usa is a niggercongrats
>>538596123
this was a huge ass building... the conversion is difficult as it is. why THE FUCK did they have to strap on this retarded looking column? just remodel the insides of the already made, standing building
>>538596462what the fuck were these jeets/mexicans thinking?
>>538596109I grew up the son of a construction company owner. That doesnt add any more weight to my opinion on this matter but this project is fundamentally retarded and someone fucked up big time somewhere and I would put cash down on Indians or muh chatbot ai being at least partly responsible
>>538596109fuck even the workers literally look like the mutt meme
>>538603698sure, it's all this mexican worker's faultshe should have stacked the 2000 concrete panels on that rusty pillar more gently! didn't she notice that it's breaking?
>>538596109> wow good job. Another win for the jews.ftfy, monkey
>>538603803literally none of this would be happening if they hired white men But they wont, and the destruction will continue until morale improves
>>538596109fifth column
>>538596638>put the red circle thereyou should be careful not to abuse the usage of the red circle of death
>>538603860Judging by the OP's description, the behaviour is more typical of a goy. But the Jews won in the end, there's a place for a new building.
>>538603803Post your pic lets compare faggot

>>538596109Someone call Larry Silverstein ASAP
>>538597891These lessons were already learned. They are currently being forgotten.
America is rapidly becoming third world and one part of being third world is not caring at all about basic health and safety standards.
>>538596109Tofu Dreg.
