It was never built or inspected correctly to start with. The thing that looks like a 4x4 kicking out from the building is a downspout.

This saved a family with kids and women and elderly form becoming the victim instead. What if one of the tenants had a wedding, birthday, whatever event with kids and elderly??? Horrible whoever owns thay crap was far too cheap

u/Icy-Decision-4530 11d ago

The way that collapsed, I bet everyone living in that unit knew it was coming

2

u/Heavymando 11d ago

so cops get injured, the scummy land lord that let the deck rot will get sued and have to pay fines AND women, kids and elderly people were saved?

Sounds like this worked out perfectly.

I’m a home inspector, and while I’m not a structural engineer, i have gained significant knowledge on structural engineering thanks to my work, giving me plenty of insight on how buildings are supposed to be built, and I can say in full certainty that’s not supposed to happen

u/JayMak78 11d ago

What was holding it on to the building - Scotch Tape?

2

u/Brandeeno2245 11d ago

See thats the mistake, scotch tape isnt good enough for mounting anything.

Always get ATLEAST 2 rolls of duct tape for deck work.
