how can any engineer or inspector know that what they can see from a surface inspection means a building is about to collapse? How many buildings do they inspect with damage that don't collapse? all of them until this one. So when they see damage they say, this should be repaired, and then when the repair gets underway, maybe people see that it needs more than anticipated, and it all gets fixed. Probably by that point in time the inspector is out of the picture. |

>also, when performing any concrete restoration work, it is impossible to know the extent of the damage to the underlying rebar until the concrete is opened up. Oftentimes the damage is more extensive than can be determined by inspection of the surface.
