If there is one group that has a great deal to lose in this building fiasco, it is insurance companies that provide TITLE insurance (usually valid for the life of the home), LIABILITY insurance (for municipalities who issued permits for homes with major structural defects, for BCIN Building Inspectors, BCIN Designers, etc.) and ERRORS AND OMISSIONS LIABILITY INSURANCE for truss manufacturers, designers and/or truss design engineers who provided inappropriate trusses in exterior walls next to a cathedral ceiling.
Given the Professional Engineers of Ontario (PEO) letter warning of problems in the truss industry, clearly, the issues, in my opinion, span far beyond the issues in our particular case as issues of "undersizing" and "improper loads inputed in engineering software" are much, much larger issues that will, in my opinion, surely continue to surface with public disclosure and with each and every structure collapse that may now come into question as a result of the issues raised on this website.
TRUSS INDUSTRY TROUBLES... THE MANY PLAYERS... THE MANY LIABILITIES!!!
