This was the engineer's first all-concrete highrise residential structure, which would be a departure from what I believe to have been a career of designing mostly 1+5s (one floor concrete, five wood).

It's like building an F150 and an F250. The F250 has beefed up components but fundamentally the vehicles are quite similar but you want to tow the weights you could with a comparable F250.

The Engineers of BC Discipline page has the Consent Order with details on the full number engineering of failures that took place in this case, as well as the Order of the Investigation Committee on Extraordinary Action which outlined his previous experience.

There's also a new posting for the other member of the firm outlining their taking the project on without the right experience or time.

Great links!

Those documents answer all the questions I was asking above.

That is an incredibly long list of everything from relatively minor, to incredibly major flaws in the buildings design and engineering.

Reading those documents ... I'd certainly never want to set up house in that building prior to it being completely remediated!

That is a very long list of design errors ... he comes across as a complete amateur, and one wonders how he ever got himself retained in the capacity of the engineer of record in the first place?
