Last week’s deadly Florida condo collapse may have started at the base of the building, engineers have said, according to reports.
“It does appear to start either at or very near the bottom of the structure,” consulting engineer Donald O. Dusenberry told the New York Times, after watching video footage of the 12-story Champlain Towers South Condo collapsing in Surfside early Thursday. “It’s not like there’s a failure high and it pancaked down.”
Dusenberry — who has investigated other building collapses — told the outlet that the way the building went down suggests there could be an issue with its foundation — such as “corrosion or other damage at a lower level.” On the other hand, “you certainly can’t rule out a design or construction error that has survived for 40 years,” the engineer said.
Another expert said the columns in the underground parking lot could be the culprit behind the collapse, the Times reported.
“The primary purpose of all the columns in the basement is to hold the structure up in the air,” said University of Toronto professor of structural engineering Evan Bentz. “Because the structure stopped being held up in the air, the simplest explanation is that the columns in the basement ceased to function.”

These “experts” are sharing theories and lies because the truth (that most people already have learned) may not be publicized.
Maybe consider switching the pic to a more Yiddishe ta’am, than this one with getchkes all over it?

And still, no one mentions the 3.9 earthquake that was caused by the US Navy’s detonating 40,000 lbs. of explosives off the Florida coast just the day before the collapse. Amazing!!
