There have been pagodas in Japan for over 1000 years. Only 8 have ever collapsed. A lot use techniques similar to the damper and bracing. There is nothing new under the sun.

Id prefer the Gothic style church still being there instead of history being erased............but its a good thing that he realized there was an issue....maybe because the church was there he had a dream, who knows 🤷🏻♂️

The ancients lived in circular huts because wind passes round rather than straight into a face or corners Perhaps the new architects would use this again ,or is it that a circular building lasts longer,needs less maintenance,handles weather easier, or are they square for price per square foot make money from space in unused footage

👋 I commend the engineer and all who owned up to the error and acted immediately. I know the bldg and church in its "shade" as I lived in New York. The fact that bolts were used instead of the welding was a major error. It was truly hair raising that a student's questions were the whistle to the catastrophic possibility of collapse., This discovery was heaven sent. Good job everyone. That was the right way to go. And since on my part I'm a Believer.., I also add : thanks Lord, the tragedy was averted., believers or not bless every body dear master of heaven's and earth.🙏✌️

It is also why you need to have the engineer sign off on changes even small ones. Welding change should have been told.

I'm glad the industry saw this as an opportunity to teach the disciplines involved about the CitiCorp building case. It well illustrates how complex the factors are when solutions are devised for novel building challenges, and how we must plan for the human element always.. I wonder if AI could be used to routinely supplement the reviews and analyses invovled.

Today, AI would have caught it.Why AI Would Likely Catch It Systematic Load Case Checking Modern structural engineering AI/tools (finite element analysis + automated load generators) would run all relevant wind directions as standard, including 45-degree increments. Today's building codes and software (like ETABS, SAP2000, or advanced parametric tools) don't let you easily "forget" quartering winds the way 1970s manual/hand-calculator methods did. Change Management Detection AI-integrated BIM (Building Information Modeling) systems flag discrepancies between design intent and as-built conditions. A switch from welded to bolted connections on critical braces would trigger automatic warnings about reduced capacity, especially if connected to wind tunnel data. Holistic Simulation Current AI can: Run thousands of wind scenarios quickly (including directionality, turbulence, and climate data).
