Good visual example of the failure of the bowstring style-girder truss hip assembly of the long span Bowling Alley occupancy; likely at area of the load bearing perimeter wall-truss component attachment at the internal column-pilaster. The dependance of the girder truss for the hip rafters integrity and load transfer is evident in the sequence of the mechanism of the roof collapse at the roof-perimeter interface. | Buildingsonfire

🔥WAIT FOR IT!🔥 @garden_state_size_up Catastrophic collapse! Never trust a bowstring truss roof. Video shows the moment a fire destroyed a business. Bowstring truss roof collapses often occur due to failures in the top or bottom chords, buckling, or overturning, particularly when adjacent trusses or bracing fail. This can lead to a significant local collapse, opening up large areas of the roof, and potentially causing the supporting walls to buckle outward. These collapses are often associated
