However, the story/video that was saved before it became unavailable (as they disappear after 24 hours) was rather damning.
Now the whole stemmercrane instagram page is gone.

Re: Crane collapse downtown
To be honest.. I dont think they spent a lot of their time .., at the highest point of the building observing the crane personel, which is one guy up top , most of the time... And to be honest, I dont think they want anyone around it even nearby , while the crane is being dusmantked.. .....
They probably had their focus on their crew , more than the subtrades...

I'd like to help You OUT,
Which way did You come in??

Re: Crane collapse downtown
Yes. We can absolutely blame the indiscretions. In regards to the investigation by Worksafe it is black and white. It makes sense there is emotions involved and feeling sorry for those in the incident that didn't do things properly. I would think that dad would have preferred doing things by the book so his boy was still alive. But alas - that didn't happen. And mentioning isn't insensitive or malicious. Its cause and effect - that's it.

This will also have a huge impact on Stemmers ability to bid on tendered jobs. Possibly mission group as well. Safety records are part of the biidding processes.

Re: Crane collapse downtown
Would not surprise me if they never put forth another bid. Family business with just the father surviving, their biggest asset lost, fines/legal woes, etc. I think the father will retire, never replace the crane, and that'll be the end of it.nucksRnum1 wrote: ↑Jul 17th, 2021, 5:42 pm This will also have a huge impact on Stemmers ability to bid on tendered jobs.

Re: Crane collapse downtown
That's a definite possibility and no one would fault him for retiring after losing 2 sons in this tragedy.

Re: Crane collapse downtown
It was a relatively new company.
My guess is the father started it and built it up mainly to pass along to his children.

Investigations and reports can take a couple years. This is a place for laymen to discuss current events.
While they may not come here for advice, investigators and lawyers involved in the collapse certainly monitor this and other forums (such as reddit where workers are dropping tidbits).
The collapse of the crane is fairly big, albeit tragic, news, and people are going to put their two cents in.
