Welcome to Green Country but not the green season. sigh. We had everything going swimmingly and Joel had the talk with the steel contractor about putting the braces in, guy said he did. Joel was going out to look at it, to see if guy matched plans called for bracing. We had some wind that night. Now ---- we have tornado's here. we are in tornado alley, this is not uncommon. That would be why we chose a steel braced barn-ouse. for the safety. The contractor didnt put bracing up. In fact he went out and took off the side bracing that was in place. We we did have medium high winds. That steel is built to withstand. if installed properly. And if it would have been tornado level winds --- the lumber would have flown down the field, the light weight styrofoam would have been blown to kingdom come. They are still lying right beside the crumpled pile of steel. Photos and video's are being made showing lack of rivets where they tore, lack of bracing yes. But the real heartbreaker is the time lost. With yet another dishonorable sub contractor.
