in SW Houston, Hawthorn Suites a hotel chain, was building a 2 story
hotel and was in the process of adding the roof. At the time no interrior
or exterior covering had been attached to the walls. We had a small front
blow through and the whole structure folded and came down. All wood
construction and at least one person was killed. The whole site had to be
cleared and started from the foundation.
3 or 4 sheets of shear panels at strategic corners would probably have
held it. that was one expensive mistake.
