Gotta know the whole story. I have a steel master same design as yours and it’s coming up on twenty years old.

Wild guess: happened just after a snow load event?


Except that I know Sequim is right on the Sound, and you don’t *get* big snow events, right?
You get rain, humidity, moss, mold, rot but not really snow

These buildings can withstand 100mph straight line winds, and I’ll have to look at my engineered documents to see what the snow loading is but I want to say it’s high. You would think with a microburst the trees behind might be in a little worse shape.
