I wonder where else they forgot to use rebar.

Presumably, a thorough inspection of all the concrete poured before the incident with the stairs, has now taken place.

Nope. From the report I have read WorkSafe only made them scan the stairs, nothing else. This is evident from street level as you can see where they spray painted the stairs to confirm the rebar. I think it’s crazy that they weren’t forced to do inspections for all structural concrete considering they somehow managed to pour concrete without any rebar in the stairs.
Hopefully EGBC will bring more heat and inspections down on them.
If I were a buyer in this project, it would definitely concern me if no additional concrete inspections are done.
It appears (from my limited understanding) that there were corrections performed to deficiencies that were discovered after the stair collapse and inspections by an engineering firm. From what I have read it’s been properly addressed and shouldn’t be a cause for concern moving forward. I’ll give credit where it’s due, it appears they’ve taken it seriously.
The paperwork points towards issues with the hired sub-trades as opposed to Lexi themselves. Obviously not a situation that anyone wanted as I’m sure it was costly to have the deficiencies addressed and work paused.
Progress still seems slow, I don’t think there’s been any work on the townhouse side for roughly a month? Not really sure what the deal is. It will be nice to see the fill in/out progress and the final vision take shape!
