Hello Hello From Canada!!! I'm new to the channel, but these construction mistakes series episodes are what got me to subscribe. I love your format, because you seem to really do some true fact research, which is a relief to see. I wish I could have smashed the like button a hundred times to show how much I like them. Other channels usually just go for pictures or videos that give a good thumbnail, but no they don't provide any substance. I hope that makes sense. I will be looking for the next episode in this series, while I check out some more of your videos, so keep up the awesome work. Stay safe, stay healthy and I hope you are as happy as you possibly can be. 🤘😁👍
A while back I read an article about the Vasa ship that said that part of the building mistakes on it were that 2 different companies built the left and right sides of the ship and their measuring standards weren't quite the same, so one side was slightly longer than the other, making the ship a bit twisted, which further added to its instability, beyond adding the 2nd gun deck without increasing the ship's draft, thus making it incredibly top-heavy as you mentioned here.
4:44 Too busy getting paid to actually do her job. That sounds about right. I would hope she would lose her job and *never* *get* *hired* *again* *to* *do* *any* *kind* *of* *inspection*
I've been subscribed for ages. I have the memory of goldfish, so I can't remember since when, but it's been over 2 years. Glad to see you guys are still cooking.
I live like 20 miles away from where the Teton Dam collapsed, also its like (teet-on) not teetin lol, but yeah my dad was their when it happened and his parrents had a house in Sugar City and it got flooded out, but he also said that the amount of livestick that got killed was just insane. I thought it was pretty cool that you featured that on your channel.
After showcasing an old warship. I believe it would be nice to have contents about Cruise Ships and their amenities and features, especially smallest to biggest, top 10 perhaps
I saw the videos the morning of the accident. I am a structural contractor and watched it many times very closely to form my own opinion. While watching, I noticed one of the missing workers running for cover and smashed between the decks as they fell. with in 30 minutes of its release, I attempted to call the police stations, the fire department and the news stations to tell them where one of the missing workers were. None of them would pass me on and said they have professionals covering it. weeks later as they dismantled the building, they then covered the area with blankets. look at 4:40 and 5:08 you can see the guy running from the patio deck into a door opening as the deck collapsed on him. I have been haunted by this since....
The inspector not actually inspecting anything and just signing off happens ALL THE TIME. I've seen it in just about every jurisdiction I've ever worked in. It all comes down to whether the inspector has had past experience with the contractor overseeing the job. If so, they will just sign off on the work without even a glance.
#suggestion, @MegaBuildsYT , Please cover disasters happened in India recently due to poor infrastructure. A lot of people lost their lives. If you would cover it, maybe this issue would get some attention of Higher authorities.
I was a civil engineering student in 1981. Yes the walkway was studied intently . As for the Vasa I toured it in 2018. 95% of what you see is what went down in 1628. The raising and preservation of the wreck is an engineering fete of its own.
The inspector was a fatty and she didn’t want to climb up to the site. Loss of life and millions. Plus, the construction guy who said it was going to fail was deported for speaking up.
Nice to see the Teton Damn in this episode. I've lived in Idaho Falls, currently live in Rexburg. But it's pronounced Tee-Ton. 😊 My boss actually lived thru this with her house getting destoyed during the collape when she was a child.
9:55 "But they didn't get there fast enough" -- no, I believe you got that incorrect. They were trying to "fill" the growing hole with dirt, but the leak was coming from the base and the sides -- it would not have worked at all even if they had done it sooner/faster.
Can we get a before and after we’re a city or town is. Like what the ecosystem was like. I mean Las Vegas use to have active geysers but we’re drained then paved over.
Inspector(s), there was another one but was qualified to inspect this building as found in a news investigation. In fact the senior inspector had layered up before the dust settled. If you saw any pictures before they brought it down there was a blue tarp. There was a body trapped in the debris for all the time until they agreed on how to bring the building down.
I have been a subscriber for a while now. Still not a fan of the name change as the new name is so generic and falls in with so many other channels with similar names. Please start putting the logo in the thumbnail to help identify your videos.
I believe it was named after the Grand Teton mountains, which are near and were named by the French as "big tits." So, yes, the pronunciation should be "tee-taan."
If you want to know more about the skywalk collapse there’s a very informative book about it called “the last dance” it gave a lot of information when I had to write an essay about the collapse junior year of high school.
The walkway disaster was NOT an engineering disaster GIVEN THE DESIGN REQUIREMENTS. It was NEVER meant to be used as a dance floor. It was NEVER meant to have that many people on it. It was DESIGNED for foot traffic between the towers. PERIOD. The catastrophic events were 100% the fault of the operators.
I had a house built in the Sierra Nevada mountains with decks on the first and second story. I designed it but had a registered architect do the drawings. I was anticipating our son being married and everybody on the upper deck, looking at the view. So what was the planned load? 100 lbs per square foot. So you cannot plan on limited transit but have to plan on maximum loads. And being a hotel they should have planned for maximum loads. They had a bad plan. It does not make any difference what it was designed for. It has to withstand actual loads.
Good projects I did essays for the condo and hardrock in my construction management class the hard rock casino was plague with corruption in the city has been rumored building inspectors passing inspections without being on cite sad to hear workers lost their lives the condo was up for many years just never maintained and the pool of water gathering up in the garage of the condo leading to corrosion of rebar weaking them multiple reports from personal were made just never brought to attention
I stayed at some elderly people’s house in Rexburg and they told us about the damn flooding. They survived but their land was trashed and they had to rebuild all over again. Potato farmers
Who's checking ground news for bias? Am I expected to have my news curated by one source and not worry about that source's bias? This consolidation seems like it will worsen the problem that it's advertised to solve.
Why were the engineers not actually punished? I think all of these actually killed people and you only mentioned on the last one, where more than 100 people died, the head engineer only lost his license? Thats it? Responsible for more than 100 lost lives and they just take your license away?
WRONG!!!!! The Hyatt collapse had NOTHING to do with the nuts! It was down to the hangers that were supposed to be single rod lengths but were actually two separate rods ! This is probably the easiest piece of research you could have done!
Russell, did you pay attention to that part of the video that featured the Hyatt Regency collapse? The collapse did had something to do with the nuts. It had something to do with the load that the nuts were carrying, which was the second and forth floor walkways and a lot of people at the time of the collapse. So, it was the complete opposite of what you said in the first sentence of your comment. Besides, you ignored what Regis said. They did research the Hyatt collapse and part of what you're talking about was already showed IN the video at at 15:09, so you were wrong after all.

What about the failure of the South Fork Dam in Johnstown Pennsylvania that caused over 2,208 deaths?

I'm subscribed since 200k and it's so nice seeing the channel grow. Keep the great work up!
That's great. Thanks a lot for watching our videos :)
Part 7? Bring it on, love that series

I'm studying as a Civil Engineer and I must say naivety, overconfidence, miscalculation, and negligence are all parts of making disasters.
That last one was chilling, wow, so sad! Never had heard of it before.
4:44 Too busy getting paid to actually do her job. That sounds about right. I would hope she would lose her job and *never* *get* *hired* *again* *to* *do* *any* *kind* *of* *inspection*
A news investigation found there was another inspector but wasn't qualified to inspect this building.
I've been subscribed for ages. I have the memory of goldfish, so I can't remember since when, but it's been over 2 years. Glad to see you guys are still cooking.
this is quality bro i love it its entertaining and interesting at same time
Cutting costs has always led to problems :(
Time now for awesome MegaBuilds with top quality content
Yay! Another ground need promo!!

I subscribed even it's was 181k. Wanted it to become popular back then and seems it's getting the popularity
This series is fantastic! I'd love to see more episodes. 🙂👍
Those beams weren’t there for long term, they’re called shoring and reshoring to help support the concrete while it sets.

Great job, keep it up ❤
Another great video 😊😊

12:32 i have seen this building multiple times, had no idea that the walkway collapse happened there

I'm all for a part 7😍
Costs and time over safety is a horrendous design choice for anything

I love it. Want more
Thank you 🙏 wow engineer 👨💻 designer 👩🎨 learning 💡from the past ☝️great ☝️🎥👋☮️
Should've added the dam of derna in libya, that killed 10k +
9:55 "But they didn't get there fast enough" -- no, I believe you got that incorrect. They were trying to "fill" the growing hole with dirt, but the leak was coming from the base and the sides -- it would not have worked at all even if they had done it sooner/faster.
Yes I want a part 7 construction mistake video please
at least the first hotel collapse happened during construction. imagine what would have happened if it was filled with tourists
Can we get a before and after we’re a city or town is.
Like what the ecosystem was like.
I mean Las Vegas use to have active geysers but we’re drained then paved over.
Teton is pronounced "Tee-tawn" lol not "teet-in"
So the Hard Rock came down to a lax inspector? Wow!
Inspector(s), there was another one but was qualified to inspect this building as found in a news investigation. In fact the senior inspector had layered up before the dust settled. If you saw any pictures before they brought it down there was a blue tarp. There was a body trapped in the debris for all the time until they agreed on how to bring the building down.

Nobody cares
What was the original name?
@@pancakemix25 Top Luxury
The new name is way better
How is Top Luxury better than Mega Builds
I just found the channel because the name matched what I was looking for
9:20 isn’t it tee-taan
I believe it was named after the Grand Teton mountains, which are near and were named by the French as "big tits." So, yes, the pronunciation should be "tee-taan."
Yes, but even though that is the correct pronunciation, some people still pronounce it incorrectly.
Yes its teet-on like turning something on, I live in teton valley about 20 miles from where the dam collapsed.
If you want to know more about the skywalk collapse there’s a very informative book about it called “the last dance” it gave a lot of information when I had to write an essay about the collapse junior year of high school.
High shear stress at the connections
Why so long not uploading, I missed you and would prefer a schedule if possible
Hi
hey
hey
When is the 7th part of the series coming out
Saw this on Bright Sun Videos
The walkway disaster was NOT an engineering disaster GIVEN THE DESIGN REQUIREMENTS. It was NEVER meant to be used as a dance floor. It was NEVER meant to have that many people on it.

Now don't be teasing us...we want to see part 7!
Teetawn, not teetun.
Vasa, our Swedish pride. In a weird way
Good projects I did essays for the condo and hardrock in my construction management class the hard rock casino was plague with corruption in the city has been rumored building inspectors passing inspections without being on cite sad to hear workers lost their lives the condo was up for many years just never maintained and the pool of water gathering up in the garage of the condo leading to corrosion of rebar weaking them multiple reports from personal were made just never brought to attention
I hate how everyone acts like ground news is something great. When it’s run by people. People don’t know how to be biased about anything ever
Imagine listening to a fabricator lol. They probably couldnt read past a 3rd grade level
Even after 5 days this video is underperforming
I stayed at some elderly people’s house in Rexburg and they told us about the damn flooding. They survived but their land was trashed and they had to rebuild all over again. Potato farmers
I want video about australia please
City inspector is 99.999999999999999999999999999999999999 a DEI hire.
You pronounced "teton" wrong...
tee taan
Yes he did, but some people pronounce place names differently than others, even though the pronunciation is wrong.
I want video about new Zealand please
Who's checking ground news for bias? Am I expected to have my news curated by one source and not worry about that source's bias? This consolidation seems like it will worsen the problem that it's advertised to solve.
not the best using the death of a hundred people as a example for your ad read... anyone else find it odd?
Poor construction can take lives. I think it’s ethical
Teat-on¿

You could make an entire TH-cam channel with construction mistakes from China.

hm
stopping kids from saying first
haha you made it :D
@@MegaBuildsYT heyy nice vid. and i did stop someone LOL this guy wrote first @user-lq8lu4ti6f
I love the content but the shaky effect featuring old videos is unnecessary and annoyingly disturbing.
It's fine, you don't have to complain, that just how it goes.

Remember to check your nuts
Can do.😅
And it all suddenly becomes clear... "she"
WRONG!!!!!
The Hyatt collapse had NOTHING to do with the nuts!
It was down to the hangers that were supposed to be single rod lengths but were actually two separate rods !
This is probably the easiest piece of research you could have done!
Is that not what the video already shows at 15:09? When you use two separate rods what ultimately bears the load?
