I’m hearing that they were flying structural steel beams up and they hit a steel beam or column on the floor below and it started a domino effect.


Small gusts this morning, but hasn't seemed like high winds

I’m hearing they removed the shoring from the lower floors and stacked it in 15 to fly down. Weight on the edge of the building caused the collapse.

That’s not a crane that’s falling. That’s the buck hoist. Bunch of guys just went down for 9:00 break
