My guess would be that a construction engineer would be pretty good at finding the reasons for structural failure but have little clue on contract law ! That said , I agree with you. Just more jobs stretched out for the boys that could simply have been under a one Panel roof Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The building inspector would be able to make those findings. Okay... rhetorical question... no building inspector. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IAMHERE Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 Double your number of panels and maybe you can double those brown envelopes? I'd sure worry if that construction crew built my condo building or local supermall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
