Comment on A design flaw that almost wiped out an NYC skyscraper (2014)

Comments

I would rather call this, which "Will Wipeout the Citicorp building". We dont know what happened with the emergency repairs then, but it is certainly not possible to fix the quarter wind problem enterily. I remember being taught about this particular Citicorp problem in my structural engineering class 30 years ago.
