Happening all over the States. Shoddy workmanship, cheaply built houses. We call them popcorn house because they appear overnight. I wouldn't be surprised if this one sold for 600k. Gotta love corporate greed!

Lol surprisingly hammering sticks into wet stand is actually incredibly stable. look up the Golden Gate Bridge construction or the Burj Al Arab in Dubai. This seems like it was just put on top of the sand which like you said is not very smart. 😂
I've worked construction in the US for years... they are all made like that. Rarely... very rarely did we build anything that would make us feel it would last for decades. It's all wood and sheet rock pretty much. What we would do is just add more braces to the ones close to the coast

Its because modern American homes are made out of brittle, thin surfaces. Nothing is solid. Just look how this house falls apart all on its own. They use styrofoam for insulation, the walls are plywood, compressed cardboard, and inside the walls are plaster boards. There is no substance. Nothing that holds the walls up.
storm. They take the worst storm in a century and build to handle it. If something abnormal happens this is the result. You wouldn’t build a house to withstand a Florida hurricane in the desert region.
Yeah but in the event it does collapse, you're gonna have a health and safety hazard for blocks, and anyone near will probably get cancer. Basically what the guy above me said
We have 100+ year old homes on steep hill sides in earthquake Los Angeles California still habitable and this new construction fails and falls? The developers, city/county and builders should be banned from ever doing business with building a home again. What a joke.
THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE BUILDERS. The CITY improperly zoned this land for building use. The CITY is to blame. I cannot believe how many jacka$$es like you keep saying the same thing when all of you dumb nuts don't even know WTF you're talking about 🥴
It's because all of you keep breeding faster than we can build homes and houses get more expensive. At that point the scammers and untrained take over and this happens
Who do you mean with a 'builder'? The construction workers dont have any say in how the house will be structurally build. That is the job of an architect. Construction workers just follow plans. Then usually some governing body is responsible for validating if the plans follow the proper guidelines. Then another body is responsible for making guidelines. So the responsible person is depending on where the fault is (the following of the plan, the making of the plan, the validating of the plan or the making of the guidelines). Usually it is a combination of many tiny errors/miscommunications/faults at the multiple levels. Saying dumb shit like 'builder responsible because building collapse' isn't worth listening to if you care about actually understanding the situation/preventing future situations/ holding the right people responsible.
Well, it is in Utah, the Beige Becky state. The house was just trying to get to the hobby lobby before the other Mormon moms could scoop up all the deals! 🤣
Those look like new construction. Chances are people hadn’t occupied them yet. If they were contracted already, Homeowners have lots of options if their house isn’t raised properly.
I went to Idaho this past year and went thru Salt Lake City Utah on my way.. I could not believe all the dumb people that built homes all over the sides of the mountains... everywhere you look on every mountain there are giant homes. With all the snow they get and snow melt causing land slides this is what you get.. The mountains are beautiful, those homes shouldn't be up there and this is mother nature's way of taking the mountain back.
Yep. I live about 20 min. from Salt Lake and I just shake my head at all the irresponsible building here. Not only are slides and floods a danger, but in the summer months some of those hillside areas are also prone to wildfire. Not smart.
Mountains are fine, Draper is sand. These folks even sing a hymn about “a wise man building his house upon the rocks and a fool building on sand.” Of course the homeowner may not be of the predominant religion but the chances that no one from developer, surveyor, county (or city) planning, realtor and title company wasn’t, is nil.
I think in USA houses are build by Cardboards.In my country we use steel rods for firm base of a house/ building and make house or building with bricks and mortar/cement or sometime concrete.

Neither house was occupied. They never made it past final inspection. I just want to know who was paid off to sign off on the building permits for that land.
There is not a single solid wall in this house. Modern American homes are put up with plywood, styrofoam for insulation, plasterboards, and all brittle surfaces. Not a single solid material. But still they ask million dollar price. As if it was a real construction.

@@daleyfun2247 Hahahaha MADE by solid wood. Christ, you must be american. The denial culture over there is just off the hook. Are you gonna tell me next that the house didnt really fall down? Yeah... The thin, sparse scaffolding is made out of wood. With 3 feet of spacing to the next stick of wood. The only solid surface in the whole construction. Do you see anything else solid in there? Like concrete walls? Like cinder blocks? No? Well then these walls are not solid, are they. Notice the styrofoam that looks like snow. Amazing. Why is everything American so rubbish.
My house has been standing in the same place for 175 years, it doesn't even have a concrete footer under it, just big square stones sitting on the ground...and I got it for free from my grandparents.
We have good basements here too, the soil was just literally too wet to provide any kind of support- brick would have tipped over instead of crumbling like this wooden house, but rest assured they both would be on the ground in a similarly fantastic way. Whoever surveyed these places did not do their job in making sure the ground could take any kind of substantial weight without shifting.
As children, we sang a song at Sunday school, "The wise man built his house upon the rock and the wind and rain did blow and the walls stood firm! The foolish man built his house upon the sand and the walls came tunbling down!". Sung to actions 😀

If all the correct work had been done before licences and permits issued, and the city engineers signed off on the development, the home wouldn't have been in this situation.
@@cbisme6414exactly!! And you should get permits for everything you do that requires a permit. A family in the town i use to live in put in a fireplace and didn't get a permit. About 12 years later their house burns down and the cause was found to be the fireplace that the fire originated from. Their house was plowed down, too much damage, and their homeowners insurance wouldn't pay for the damages because they never got a permit for the fireplace. So, they still had a mortgage to pay, no house, just the lot left and they ended up having to claim bankruptcy and moved to an apartment. Sad that people usually don't think of things like this before they proceed without the proper permits.

Сейчас все стараются построить быстро. Я помню в детстве строили фундамент и оставляли его на несколько лет. Чтобы он пережил пару смен сезонов. И потом смотрели как он себя "чувствует" , только после этого строили дом. Говорили, что фундамент должен "постареть" .
«Раньше» на месте застройки не делали геологические изыскания. То, что вы написали про «пару сезонов», «несколько лет», «старение» фундамента - простите великодушно, но в современном строительстве это называется ненаучной фантастикой, иначе говоря - бредом. Для деревянного строения это «выстаивание» фундамента вообще не имеет смысла. Удивлён, что у вашего смешного утверждения нашлось столько больных на голову поклонников. Чем больше верований, дедовских сказочных преданий и чем меньше науки или просто хорошего образования - тем больше дилетантов в строительстве и, соответственно, результаты налицо.
Дада ты прав ток у нас так 10 этажку построили сразу а потом год ждали чтоб лифт в шахте незастревал. Когда вторую рядом строили дали полгода фундаменту отстоятся и фсе как помаслу пошло
Я живу в доме постройки 1960г. Всего было построено 7 домов: 6 двухэтажных и мой трехэтажный. Судя по датам постройки, в год строился 1 дом, первый в 1954. Не знаю как строили 6 домов, а как строили мой, мне рассказал отец. Он уже знал, что получит квартиру в этом доме и ходил смотреть стройку. На этом месте когда-то были плавни и грунтовые воды находятся очн близко к поверхности. Когда начали рыть яму под фундамен, она тут же заполнялась водой, поэтому заморачиваться не стали и вырыли по периметру не глубокую ямку и залили туда цемент с ракушечником, а на этом фундаменте стены возвели. Дому 64 года, а он стоит! Вот только после землетрясения в 2002 году трещина в стене образовалась но не большая, только ладонь сосед смог просунуть. Но ЖКХ справились с этой проблемой быстро и не дорого. Они запенили трещину пенобетоном и замазали штукатуркой. Вуаля! Ветер в квартиру соседа уже не залетает 22 года. Подвала в доме нет, так как фундамента тоже практически нет, но есть такая пародия на подвал для коммуникаций. Это яма в подъезде под лестничной клеткой, Где-то 1.5 м глубиной и 2х2 периметр. Там трубы водопроводные, разводка по дому. Яма только в одном подъезде, вот только она всё время наполняется водой, особенно после дождя. Но и эту проблему решили. Поставили насос, который откачивает эту воду. Хотела добиться переселения из аварийного жилья, приехала комиссия во главе с главным архитектором города. К приезду комиссии вырыли яму, чтоб они могли посмотреть фундамент. Но вот незадача, яму вырыли накануне, а к утру она была до краев наполнена водой. Комиссия приехала, а фундамента не видно. Второй раз яму рыли за час до приезда комиссии. Благо рыть много не пришлось, так как фундамента оказалось 20-30 см. Стоим мы у этой ямы с архитектором, смотрим на полуразрушенный фундамент из цемента и ракушечником, и он у меня спрашивает: а где фундамент? Так это и есть фундамент трехэтажного дома, построенного на воде😂 Заключение комиссии я перечитывала три раза, думала, что розыгрыш. В нем сказано, что у дома 68℅ износа и требуется капитальный ремонт фундамента, стен, балконов и крыши. Это был 2017 год. Крышу отремонтировали в 2022. До ремонта крыши вода текла по стенам снаружи и внутри соседней квартиры 3 года, а так как у нас общая стена, то у меня образовался грибок, который вывести невозможно. Соседей частично спасал натяжной потолок, после каждого дождя они сливали с него воду. После ремонта крыши вода по стенам не течёт, теперь она течёт внутри стен. При ремонте, выход вентиляционных шахт на крыше накрыли жестью, которую унесло первым же ветром вместе с кирпичами, к которым ее прибили. Теперь все осадки у нас заливаются в эти шахты, но радует, что из отдушин ничего не вытекает, видимо вся вода по стенам шахт уходит в землю. Вот только в подъезде на первом этаже стена очень раздулась и краска со штукатуркой отваливаются. Но дом стоит! Вопрос сколько ещё он простоит? А тут на видео совершенно новый дом и развалился! Видимо его действительно из пенопласта строили.
@@mackpack3561 that's correct. A geotechnical engineering company will either perform on site tests, or bring samples to a lab to determine the shear strength of the soil. For cases where the soil is weak, deep foundations, like piles, may be required.
That is what happens with the houses of sticks and plaster that are built in the United States, these houses are like the houses in the story of "The Three Little Pigs", the wolf blows and destroys it.
Its amazing that in a first world country like America that the quality of their housing is so poor. Building literally made of thin sticks of wood and paper stuck together with glue and staples. Crazy.
It's not the builder. He is just told to build it The soil engineers could be to blame but if it's a bad area they will tell you it's your land. Build it. But it's all on the owner. Insurance won't cover it if they do t get proper engineering sign-offs. Many times on beaches theu all sign off that it's not safe but do what you want. posted by Draper City, the homes were ordered to be evacuated in October 2022. This was related to earth shifting that resulted in sliding and breaks in the homes' foundations.

Brings back memories when I was working on a house in the basement pouring footings for a wall and the wall came in ward in front of me you could hear rocks falling behind the wall I went outside in the front of house and you could hear the sounds that something was not right little cracks in the structure was spreading apart so I waited for a minute and talked with the inspector of the job site I told him that the problem was that they didn’t secure the walls and foundation well enough and I told him it was going to crumble and cave in and he stood next to me and Watched the whole house collapsed and crumble in to a pile
I thought the same thing , also That concrete didn't slide it fell apart too. This was so bad I'd be looking at insurance fraud. My house is 3 stories, 2 of them literally on the side of a mountain and survived 3 cat 5 hurricanes.
Steak dinner sound good? 😂😂 Sadly this is so true I have seen it several times. The last 4 Houses i wired I can almost guarantee one of them will do this after the second good hurricane! We are not talking spec houses. 12 k SF Plus. SMH

@@noirlite5573 right. so developers are buying the land and developing it against advice because they and their investors stand to make a huge profit. the expression money talks means you'll do whatever regardless because you've got the money.
Any land can be built on with appropriate soil preparation and foundations. Obviously, they dont do that kind of work for theses new cardboard huts. But it doesnt cancel the fact that, with sufficient modifications and preparation done to the ground, a stable base can be made to support a home. How do you think we can build concrete supports for massive bridges crossing huge rivers otherwise? This is just the result of price cutting by not laying down the appropriate foundation and not doing the excavation work to stabilize the soil. It is not a matter of “an area that shouldn’t be supposed to be developed”, but a matter of developing an area while not spending the money required to modify the land appropriately. Pillars of many bridges have been standing strong, many bridges that are many decades old, and in some case, centuries. The bottom of such rivers is nothing but stable. Its just mud. The pillars stand because they were built on sufficient foundations with enough landwork around them. Theses homes are just cardboard on a slice of thin concrete “foundation”
😢 My mother grew up in an area that was between two cities at the time. She and her brothers played in a creek as rhey walked to and from rural school. The cities grew, the creek got a bunch of fill dirt dumped in it, and housing built on top. Then people got mad their houses flooded. Especially finished basements. 🙃🙄

@@mtguy234Right? An engineer is what one needs to determine the stability of the soil. Compaction and such things need to be measured. It's not a land surveyor's job to determine whether the ground is safe to build on, his job is to accurately record where things like boundaries and monuments and land markers are located, mostly for legal purposes.
@@glynnisthomas9165yeah funny enough the surveyor is the only one that’s not responsible for this lol. This involves the geotech engineer, the structural engineer, the site/civil engineer, and the contractor(if they didn’t follow design guidelines and specs)
Passed** It's not a "certified inspection" either. It's the fault of the engineer whom surveyed the land, did the soil reports and was supposed to engineer the proper foundation for those reports or deem the land unbuildable to begin with. If the land WAS buildable, then the foundation or the water management is wrong which again goes back to the engineer. If the engineer didn't do their job, then the architect couldn't have done their job properly. If the engineer did do their job, then the architect didn't do THEIR job. An inspector ONLY inspects that the building is built according to the architectural drawings which includes the city codes and engineers recommendations and findings. This is coming from a builder, me, who's been in the field for over 15 years. I've been doing construction since I was 19 years old.
Or..... the builder didn't do the recommended remediation prior to build or the builder laid foundation in saturated soil when the soil was frozen instead of thawed or the builder started building prior to compaction completion. Not saying Jackie's things aren't true, but going only by that, the builder is never at fault. I recall a roof of a super dome collapsing and it wasn't the engineers' faults.
@@j.thomas7128 Buddy, for this instance in particular, it's not the builder, it's the land slide, which strictly goes back to the engineer. There are times builders are at fault, yes, but I'm specifically commenting on this case in particular. That's all. 😊
@@warlorty It hurts when a woman knows more than what a man should in a construction field doesn't it? Here, take this 🍪 back. You seem to need it more...
Thats very scary . Poor people. My mom use to say after the concrete foundation is poured a good builder waits till the foundation settles before building the rest , however long that takes. Not these days i noticed. Subdivisions go up like they sprouted over night.
Hey carpenter here, it takes concrete 28 days to reach full strength but after about 14 days its at 85% strength which will support the load of a building
@@UberUnderAged You're correct about the time it takes for concrete to cure where cold weather is not an issue. I believe the original comment was about settlement duration and magnitude, which depends on the surcharge, soil type, and groundwater table depth.
Those poor people! I really hope they had time to at least get their important and valuable things out. To lose your home like that, like a soggy cardboard box, must be heartbreaking. I hope nobody was hurt.
I am not going to pick at the state but in Utah/Kansas they teach how to divide fractions in high school… I am happy the house was empty and it was safe but seriously this is a macro-problem, resulting from their poor education. There is a reason why large cities do not work with engineers with degrees from states like Utah.
Imagine telling your employer that you can't come in today because your house fell. On a more serious side im glad the city/county deemed unfit to reside in and ordered them move out before this happened.
I highly doubt this has anything to do with, new generation of builders. I’m sure the contractor followed code and had permits. Mother nature is unpredictable. The only time someone would spend the extra money to get the soil analyzed to make sure something like this wouldn’t happen is if the home owner themselves was paying for it. A contractor is always going to follow code and pull permit because he is trying to make a money. This comment of yours is ridiculous. Clearly you were not in the business. Shut your mouth you’re stupid Monday morning quarterback!
That's exactly right... the only thing that matters in this world anymore to most people,is POWER and MONEY! ..... How Much Do I Have, & How Much Can I Get Fast!!
One of the buildings in my apartment complex settled such that one side is lower than the other and the drainage system they designed doesn't work anymore because it's suddenly flowing up hill.

"God has something better for you" you say to the family that lost their only home that they worked their entire lives towards, and they now live on the street with no job and nothing, no way to get anything.

Looks like a really new house whoever surveyed that and laid the foundation should definitely be investigated. That's nuts.

Exactly.
Except for the asbestos, lead paint, and post-and-knob wiring.
By the way, this house collapsed because of the ground collapsing below it.
Yeah but in the event it does collapse, you're gonna have a health and safety hazard for blocks, and anyone near will probably get cancer. Basically what the guy above me said
We have 100+ year old homes on steep hill sides in earthquake Los Angeles California still habitable and this new construction fails and falls? The developers, city/county and builders should be banned from ever doing business with building a home again. What a joke.
THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE BUILDERS. The CITY improperly zoned this land for building use. The CITY is to blame. I cannot believe how many jacka$$es like you keep saying the same thing when all of you dumb nuts don't even know WTF you're talking about 🥴

It's because all of you keep breeding faster than we can build homes and houses get more expensive. At that point the scammers and untrained take over and this happens
This builder should be banned from ever touching even a set of blueprints
I manage 3 of this builder's properties, and despite doing a soils test, the retention walls also failed.
Who do you mean with a 'builder'? The construction workers dont have any say in how the house will be structurally build.
That is the job of an architect. Construction workers just follow plans.
Then usually some governing body is responsible for validating if the plans follow the proper guidelines.
Then another body is responsible for making guidelines.
So the responsible person is depending on where the fault is (the following of the plan, the making of the plan, the validating of the plan or the making of the guidelines).
Usually it is a combination of many tiny errors/miscommunications/faults at the multiple levels.
Saying dumb shit like 'builder responsible because building collapse' isn't worth listening to if you care about actually understanding the situation/preventing future situations/ holding the right people responsible.

I could not believe all the dumb people that built homes all over the sides of the mountains... everywhere you look on every mountain there are giant homes. With all the snow they get and snow melt causing land slides this is what you get.. The mountains are beautiful, those homes shouldn't be up there and this is mother nature's way of taking the mountain back.
Yep. I live about 20 min. from Salt Lake and I just shake my head at all the irresponsible building here. Not only are slides and floods a danger, but in the summer months some of those hillside areas are also prone to wildfire. Not smart.

Of course the homeowner may not be of the predominant religion but the chances that no one from developer, surveyor, county (or city) planning, realtor and title company wasn’t, is nil.
I think in USA houses are build by Cardboards.In my country we use steel rods for firm base of a house/ building and make house or building with bricks and mortar/cement or sometime concrete.
Your steel rods and bricks won't save your house if the ground collapses, genius.

About 12 years later their house burns down and the cause was found to be the fireplace that the fire originated from. Their house was plowed down, too much damage, and their homeowners insurance wouldn't pay for the damages because they never got a permit for the fireplace. So, they still had a mortgage to pay, no house, just the lot left and they ended up having to claim bankruptcy and moved to an apartment.

What a waste. I grew up in SLC and I saw them building so many houses on mountain sides. It was inevitable
Сейчас все стараются построить быстро. Я помню в детстве строили фундамент и оставляли его на несколько лет. Чтобы он пережил пару смен сезонов. И потом смотрели как он себя "чувствует" , только после этого строили дом. Говорили, что фундамент должен "постареть" .
«Раньше» на месте застройки не делали геологические изыскания. То, что вы написали про «пару сезонов», «несколько лет», «старение» фундамента - простите великодушно, но в современном строительстве это называется ненаучной фантастикой, иначе говоря - бредом. Для деревянного строения это «выстаивание» фундамента вообще не имеет смысла.
Удивлён, что у вашего смешного утверждения нашлось столько больных на голову поклонников.
Чем больше верований, дедовских сказочных преданий и чем меньше науки или просто хорошего образования - тем больше дилетантов в строительстве и, соответственно, результаты налицо.
Дада ты прав ток у нас так 10 этажку построили сразу а потом год ждали чтоб лифт в шахте незастревал. Когда вторую рядом строили дали полгода фундаменту отстоятся и фсе как помаслу пошло
Я живу в доме постройки 1960г. Всего было построено 7 домов: 6 двухэтажных и мой трехэтажный. Судя по датам постройки, в год строился 1 дом, первый в 1954. Не знаю как строили 6 домов, а как строили мой, мне рассказал отец. Он уже знал, что получит квартиру в этом доме и ходил смотреть стройку. На этом месте когда-то были плавни и грунтовые воды находятся очн близко к поверхности. Когда начали рыть яму под фундамен, она тут же заполнялась водой, поэтому заморачиваться не стали и вырыли по периметру не глубокую ямку и залили туда цемент с ракушечником, а на этом фундаменте стены возвели. Дому 64 года, а он стоит! Вот только после землетрясения в 2002 году трещина в стене образовалась но не большая, только ладонь сосед смог просунуть. Но ЖКХ справились с этой проблемой быстро и не дорого. Они запенили трещину пенобетоном и замазали штукатуркой. Вуаля! Ветер в квартиру соседа уже не залетает 22 года. Подвала в доме нет, так как фундамента тоже практически нет, но есть такая пародия на подвал для коммуникаций. Это яма в подъезде под лестничной клеткой, Где-то 1.5 м глубиной и 2х2 периметр. Там трубы водопроводные, разводка по дому. Яма только в одном подъезде, вот только она всё время наполняется водой, особенно после дождя. Но и эту проблему решили. Поставили насос, который откачивает эту воду. Хотела добиться переселения из аварийного жилья, приехала комиссия во главе с главным архитектором города. К приезду комиссии вырыли яму, чтоб они могли посмотреть фундамент. Но вот незадача, яму вырыли накануне, а к утру она была до краев наполнена водой. Комиссия приехала, а фундамента не видно. Второй раз яму рыли за час до приезда комиссии. Благо рыть много не пришлось, так как фундамента оказалось 20-30 см. Стоим мы у этой ямы с архитектором, смотрим на полуразрушенный фундамент из цемента и ракушечником, и он у меня спрашивает: а где фундамент? Так это и есть фундамент трехэтажного дома, построенного на воде😂 Заключение комиссии я перечитывала три раза, думала, что розыгрыш. В нем сказано, что у дома 68℅ износа и требуется капитальный ремонт фундамента, стен, балконов и крыши. Это был 2017 год. Крышу отремонтировали в 2022. До ремонта крыши вода текла по стенам снаружи и внутри соседней квартиры 3 года, а так как у нас общая стена, то у меня образовался грибок, который вывести невозможно. Соседей частично спасал натяжной потолок, после каждого дождя они сливали с него воду. После ремонта крыши вода по стенам не течёт, теперь она течёт внутри стен. При ремонте, выход вентиляционных шахт на крыше накрыли жестью, которую унесло первым же ветром вместе с кирпичами, к которым ее прибили. Теперь все осадки у нас заливаются в эти шахты, но радует, что из отдушин ничего не вытекает, видимо вся вода по стенам шахт уходит в землю. Вот только в подъезде на первом этаже стена очень раздулась и краска со штукатуркой отваливаются. Но дом стоит! Вопрос сколько ещё он простоит? А тут на видео совершенно новый дом и развалился! Видимо его действительно из пенопласта строили.

Any land can be built on with appropriate soil preparation and foundations.
Obviously, they dont do that kind of work for theses new cardboard huts.
But it doesnt cancel the fact that, with sufficient modifications and preparation done to the ground, a stable base can be made to support a home. How do you think we can build concrete supports for massive bridges crossing huge rivers otherwise?
This is just the result of price cutting by not laying down the appropriate foundation and not doing the excavation work to stabilize the soil.
It is not a matter of “an area that shouldn’t be supposed to be developed”, but a matter of developing an area while not spending the money required to modify the land appropriately.
Pillars of many bridges have been standing strong, many bridges that are many decades old, and in some case, centuries. The bottom of such rivers is nothing but stable. Its just mud. The pillars stand because they were built on sufficient foundations with enough landwork around them.
Theses homes are just cardboard on a slice of thin concrete “foundation”

It's not a land surveyor's job to determine whether the ground is safe to build on, his job is to accurately record where things like boundaries and monuments and land markers are located, mostly for legal purposes.
@@glynnisthomas9165yeah funny enough the surveyor is the only one that’s not responsible for this lol. This involves the geotech engineer, the structural engineer, the site/civil engineer, and the contractor(if they didn’t follow design guidelines and specs)
@@mtguy234i thought the surveyor will not just check topography but also inform you of potential issues that could affect construction.🤔🤷♀️
PERC test.
No way that house would have past a certified inspection!!
Passed** It's not a "certified inspection" either. It's the fault of the engineer whom surveyed the land, did the soil reports and was supposed to engineer the proper foundation for those reports or deem the land unbuildable to begin with. If the land WAS buildable, then the foundation or the water management is wrong which again goes back to the engineer. If the engineer didn't do their job, then the architect couldn't have done their job properly. If the engineer did do their job, then the architect didn't do THEIR job. An inspector ONLY inspects that the building is built according to the architectural drawings which includes the city codes and engineers recommendations and findings. This is coming from a builder, me, who's been in the field for over 15 years. I've been doing construction since I was 19 years old.
@JacquelynRivera930 cool story, sis. For you: 🍪
Or..... the builder didn't do the recommended remediation prior to build or the builder laid foundation in saturated soil when the soil was frozen instead of thawed or the builder started building prior to compaction completion. Not saying Jackie's things aren't true, but going only by that, the builder is never at fault. I recall a roof of a super dome collapsing and it wasn't the engineers' faults.
@@j.thomas7128 Buddy, for this instance in particular, it's not the builder, it's the land slide, which strictly goes back to the engineer. There are times builders are at fault, yes, but I'm specifically commenting on this case in particular. That's all. 😊
@@warlorty It hurts when a woman knows more than what a man should in a construction field doesn't it? Here, take this 🍪 back. You seem to need it more...
I live near this neighborhood and when your builder goes through shady company’s to get a soil sample passed off. You get yourself a lot of lawsuits.
What state is this in? This almost looks fake
It says Draper, I saw someone say it’s an Edge Home, so I believe it’s Utah, 25mins south of Salt Lake City
@@donnalawrence9054 Yes, Battle Tested is correct. Salt Lake City suburb.
The homes in question are located in a development called sun crest. Which is in Draper Ut.
Probably Mitt Romney's buddies!
Ohhhh God, poor people losing everything x 😪💔
Thats very scary . Poor people. My mom use to say after the concrete foundation is poured a good builder waits till the foundation settles before building the rest , however long that takes. Not these days i noticed. Subdivisions go up like they sprouted over night.
Hey carpenter here, it takes concrete 28 days to reach full strength but after about 14 days its at 85% strength which will support the load of a building
It can take concrete over 100 years before it cures 100%!
Hope they had the right type of homeowners insurance to cover that!!
@@UberUnderAged You're correct about the time it takes for concrete to cure where cold weather is not an issue. I believe the original comment was about settlement duration and magnitude, which depends on the surcharge, soil type, and groundwater table depth.
I would not want my house built on soils after they “settled.”
Those poor people! I really hope they had time to at least get their important and valuable things out. To lose your home like that, like a soggy cardboard box, must be heartbreaking. I hope nobody was hurt.
I don’t see any furniture or anything inside
Probably a Mormon household God's Wrath
@MarkHarper-ek8ss
More like California contractor work.
pretty sure it was still being built
Sad taken for a ride
Hope everyone is safe. Contractors who build that should be accountable
I am not going to pick at the state but in Utah/Kansas they teach how to divide fractions in high school… I am happy the house was empty and it was safe but seriously this is a macro-problem, resulting from their poor education. There is a reason why large cities do not work with engineers with degrees from states like Utah.
Imagine telling your employer that you can't come in today because your house fell.
On a more serious side im glad the city/county deemed unfit to reside in and ordered them move out before this happened.
No, My house disintegrated!!!!! 🤦🏽♀️
that same city approved, passed inspection of this garbage construction.
Wow! So they were aware of the issues and moved out. Thank God!
When you don't build your house on sand, you build it out of sand.
That!!!👆👆👆
Que tegrrible lo que hacela nieve
But it's made out of wood, of course it collapses easily.😮
New generation of builders, we're going to see more of this as time goes on.
Yep 100%
Wise person true words.
yep
Yeah it’s the new generations fault not the boomer corporations cutting corners every single fucken thing in the house
I highly doubt this has anything to do with, new generation of builders. I’m sure the contractor followed code and had permits. Mother nature is unpredictable.
The only time someone would spend the extra money to get the soil analyzed to make sure something like this wouldn’t happen is if the home owner themselves was paying for it. A contractor is always going to follow code and pull permit because he is trying to make a money. This comment of yours is ridiculous. Clearly you were not in the business.
Shut your mouth you’re stupid Monday morning quarterback!
That’s why teachers say if one person messes up, the whole class messes up
How sad to loose a home in this way.I hope these familys are ok.😟
Yes it is😢 you can also look up the war on Gaza…
@@uphill248 ты мудак, хреново провокатор! в газе снега небывает.
Home ?!!! Come on !
Don't be sad. Its only paper.
Надеюсь, что в доме никого не было?!😮
And it passed code inspection. It's all about the Benjamins, not the job.
They need fine the code inspection he or she was pay under table money
NO SHIT YOU RIGHT!
That's exactly right... the only thing that matters in this world anymore to most people,is POWER and MONEY! .....
How Much Do I Have, & How Much Can I Get Fast!!
😂😂😂😂 Benjamins
Next convenient statement who to blame…
For years people have been building houses where they shouldn't be and for years we will be seeing these houses collapse, burn and wash away.
Yup!
SMH
The ground did NOT give way. The house collapsed! Shity building and materials!!!!
I'm always nervous when I see celebrity homes built in the Hollywood Hills , on the side of a cliff. 😱
I'm good with my little home 🏡 on the outskirts of the capital ❤️🏡❤️
One of the buildings in my apartment complex settled such that one side is lower than the other and the drainage system they designed doesn't work anymore because it's suddenly flowing up hill.
This is why you dont build with balsa wood. That collapse was so gentle.
Im going to blame the democrats...if there were no rules in the first place THIS WOULD HAVE NEVER HAPPENED. GOD is really testing us with those evil/dumb non-going-to-heavan-democrats.
Terrible, I'm sorry for your loss. Bless all the families that are affected by this. God has something better for you.🙏
What a beautiful comment amidst all these awful ones. God bless you!❤
@@janet307 God bless you as well.
"God has something better for you" you say to the family that lost their only home that they worked their entire lives towards, and they now live on the street with no job and nothing, no way to get anything. You religious nuts are the worst. If God has something better for us, how about you uae your tithe money to actually help someone you see struggling in the world instead of letting the pastor pocket all those benjamins so he can deck out his man cave at home
Like what? Living in make-believe land must be comforting..
God doesn't exist 🤡
This is why the foundations go down to solid ground/bedrock and NOT on a flood plain without drainage.
Whole cities are built in areas where there is no “bedrock.” Like New Orleans; Houston.
Funny how some ancient home and buildings are still standing after thousands of years. Humans have devolved.
Дом из пыли и пенопласта, это ужасно!
Там ещё фанера должна быть🤔
I'm so sorry for the occupants & owners.
When you know it's time to move when the house moves itself.
You shouldn’t build a house out of foam and plastic, especially on a hill. That thing just disintegrates and blows away.
That's clearly not the problem here. The problem is that the foundation was not build correctly to withstand soft ground
