How could any intelligent person enter into such a building wit no single beam/pillars holding the overhead?.

Lawd have mercy.

Hello! The House of God just collapsed, His altar like you claim. How did it fall? Could a biblical miracle happen like it was written in the bible? Now you talking COREN grin grin grin


We re talking of a spiritual house and not a mall.... I don't know a God that would allow his children perish right under his house and he couldn't even just hang the roof in the air.
enjoy ur folly. All atheist I've been meeting are very intelligent, but ur own case is uniquely different. Ur dumbness is legendary.

Was any test done to determine the soil's load bearing capacity undecided

It looks like they wanted to emulate the winner's chapel edifice at Ota but they've forgotten that bishop oyedepo is a trained Architect.

Look at the walls shocked shocked isn't that just block and cement? No steel beams to support the overhead steel work shocked shocked
nne what has the load bearing capacity of the soil got to do with a collapsed roof that left the walls still standing? You wan show yasef abi?
This is probably due to wrong distribution of loads of the roof which created a point load at the centre. This was caused by gravitational force acting downwards from the king post undecided

Common sense is not commom

My Mum often says that to us when she thinks we've acted stupidly.

And to those talking about God ..., please, let's remember that God created a BRAIN in man for a purpose. God is never ever going to do the thinking for us. So, it's a shame that someone placed such heavy load (steel) on such feeble looking walls which if tested, one would discover has a much higher percentage of sand to cement - low quality commercial blocks, and probably thought it was going to stay because it was 'God's house'. Anyway, that structure was a disaster waiting to happen but it's sad that it chose to happen when it did. So heartbreaking how young lives were lost by outright carelessness of some incompetent people. But, who the heck was the project manager or supervisor? Oh dear me!

Actually some owners try to force the engineers hand to build for them what they like. especially when it comes to cost and quality of building materials. A friend of mine who is a Civil Engineer has a big quarrel with a client regarding following government guidelines. The owner wanted the fence to be built closer to a highway as against the guideline of 50m.

Structures can be built without central pillars. Geodesic structures are structures built with steel members (triangular units) that can distribute the load within the whole structure.

That's what you get when you copy a man without having the depth behind his creativity and when everyone is trying to do something to prove a point when God is not the one instructing it.

What you see their is an attempt to replicate Faith Tabernacle so that someone can have something to brag.
Re: Photos Of Reigners Bible Church Under Construction by newyorks(m): 2:50pm On Dec 12, 2016
the problem must be from the welders as u can see that part of the building stood firm. most structures don't require center support most especially circular structures.and again the column design how is it.in civil engineering frame support is enough to carry the weight of imposed load being subjected to it.the design mix too plays a vital role.

The soil's load bearing capacity for a structure of that size is very important. It is one of the very first test that should have been carried out before any work commenced on the building site.

Looking at the picture, the soil looks like laterite.

Looking at the picture again, it appears there was a lot of soil excavation before the construction work began.

There is nothing wrong with the design of the building itself. I have seen several far more complex structures. The problem is too much emphasis was placed on the structural roof work without thinking about the load bearing walls/beams/soil.
i have passed thru that church a lot of times because i reside around there, what you said about excavation is very true. The place was sloppy so they had to excavate and grade it to make a level ground for the construction work proper. The pillars too are in fact very thin and initially i thought they were gonna do normal roofing with wood and zinc

Winners chapel in ota does not make use of metal for the beams but a kind of syntentic alloy that is light and can stay without pillars for support!!

Do you understand?

I am not a professional on this building stuff but from what I have seen when people build with such roofing system compared to what I am seeing on the picture, it is totally different and unprofessional.

Iron roofs are connected to an iron pillar which are supported by a solid cast foundation before you start even laying blocks.

#from what I am seeing in the pictures, it's really unprofessional and the fault of the so called contractors.

If the building hadn't collapsed, would u have noticed this?
Winners chapel doesn't have a pillar in the middle, so I don't think it's design problem. I think it's substandard building materials that caused this mess

Pillars might not be at the middle. But the supporting Pillars at the sides are just to feeble to withstand the heavy load induced by the roof. Though sub-standard building materials is also a cause

A pillar at the middle would have averted this mishap. The structural engineer should be held accountable

There's no need for pillar in the middle. Does stadiums have pillars in the middle?

not necessarily a pillar,in theatres,stadiums and auditoriums,pillars are sources of obstruction for spectators/congregation/fans so are usually not used, however reinforcements (to design)is added. All is about design
Re: Photos Of Reigners Bible Church Under Construction by GreenCap: 4:22pm On Dec 12, 2016
Faith Tabernacle Ota comes to mind;

the president of Living Faith Church worldwide is a wise architect.

i'm not a structural engineer but

designs create room for transient load on bridges and distributed load in stadiums

This is not china which is prone to earth tremors that wreck havoc on buildings, why don't our engineers appreciate this fact and save lives by giving quality constructions. Reasons why COREN need to step up there game.

Stadiums are usually open roof....in this case its roofs were completely coverred making a mid-pillar necessary
