Find the only row of columns without a number. Clue, it is between column row 10 and 11.

Find a clear picture of the front of the building and notice a plywood box completly encasing our friend with no number.

Think about the expansion joint.

Here you can see the plywood box hiding our imaginary column row with no number.

Now look to the right of that plywood box and you can see column row 12 is the edge that is still intact. The question needing asked is what held the left hand edge of the slab and beams from the collapsed section.

No other columns are shored this way, hiden.

This is going to take me all year, i could do with some help if anybody is able to assist please u2u me.
Had to buy a decent paint package after work today, after i had bought it i wondered wtf am i doing, i only went to ATS to ask a golf question, anyway dont laugh at my initial scribbles.



Shows a plan view of the concrete beams, the floor slab is supported by the beams, (columns support the beams, beams support the slab.)

The grey grid is the building to the left of the expansion joint when you view the building from the heliport area. The edge closest to the collapsed area sits along grid line 11. Grid line 11 has columns which support the edge sitting closest to the collapsed area.

The black grid contains an area of the collapsed section sitting to the right of the expansion joint, viewed from the helipad. The edge closest to the collapsed area Stops short of grid line 11. Anything short of grid line 11 has no columns which to support the beams/slab.
