I bet this happened because they were in too much of a hurry to cross brace as they built. All because they were trying to save a bit of money on crane rental. You can even hear the wind on the video.

I knew this was coming when the video started.
Not one damn stick of wind bracing or kickers from the ground to the gable truss.
Dumb Asses.

wonderful work guys!! seriously!!

That will hit there pockets hard, plus that crane is not cheap, bad site no safety and bad job of tying gable trusses together, those ties only worked for standard trusses.

Shit son that sucks
-
I remember this...now our beautiful wing is almost done!!! Woot!

Thats a no brainer, any experienced crew... as soon as that gable end was set, get on-it start bracing.... with that run of trusses at least 6 to 7 braces from the grown up, shit throw a couple xtra in... better be safe then sorry asses, oh! thats right you wouldn't have an ass left after that screw up.

The wind from the storm was likely over 50 MPH. I was inside at the time and saw the emergency vehicles headed for EGC. Only 2 of the construction workers were injured. Neither had serious injuries.

My guess, and I am not an engineer, is that the end wall was solid so it caught the wind and then pulled all of the other trusses over. The trusses then fell down into the cinder block wall and pushed the blocks out taking down the walls as well.
