Every firm that did any work on that building will be named 3rd party defendants by the GC. And yeah, Citadel will be sued by the ownership company. They are 2 separate legal entities now on opposing sides of liability issues.

Don't you think they will eventually tear down somehow what is still standing and start over??
#1: you won’t find an engineer that will sign off on the structural integrity of the structure in its current state.
#2: you won’t find a tenet that wants their name associated with the building “the collapsed and killed multiple people.”

Looks like Friday they implode it all.
Should be a good site to see.
Two bodies buried had dna samples taken for identification. Remove some flammable hazards and Friday boom
Sweep up and build the next building.

It’s not true
If it’s not true than he will just wait on his money. I just commented on the post speculating that they might be trying some novel design.
The drywall contractor installs the metal studs both load bearing and non load bearing. Has nothing to do with the actual Sheetrock.
And the painter tapes and floats. He’s in good shape because he hasn’t even walked on the job.

I hope like hell they didn’t use a load bearing stud system designed by the Pace Group.

My husband is in the Orchestra on the show. His instruments are still in the pit. He was told they would be able to get them Sunday. I told him not to count on it from what I’m reading.

Well, drywall = Sheetrock. Just like Skil saw = Circular saw. Sheetrock is a brand name of gypsum board.
In most cases, your metal stud contractor will also hang the drywall. It’s not uncommon to have a drywall contractor certified to do structural metal studs. Now I’ve seen (and personally done) composite structural metal stud/ structural steel jobs. But if true, I’ve never seen a structural steel on deck with composite interior load bearing walls. With multistory elevated construction like this, you want welded robust connections to resist seismic or wind loading. I don’t even know how or why you’d consider that design, especially with them already having placed the concrete on the decks.

From my sauce, this is the plan

In any load bearing metal stud job, the stud are installed first. The deck sits on the studs, then the deck is poured. You shore the deck as required by the engineer. You don’t pour the deck then install studs. Drywall guy in my opinion is not responsible at all, unless someone really stupid put the schedule together. .

Also, as it wasn’t a public job there would be no performance bond required by any municipality.
Lender would require it.

Seems surprising they’d be able to plan and execute this that quickly, no?

They should send in lots of laser scanning drones to capture all the info they need before they implode

I know chief. I was pointing out the discussion was about the liability of the metal studs. Not the actual hanging of the Sheetrock.
And I’ve done it for 50 years and never once picked up taping and floating. Painters always pick that up in their scope.

Good point. You would think they would.
