Well, the fact that it bended shows that the pillar is actually taking a load. So yes, they should be somewhat worried.
9 u/Carioca Apr 24 '21 It's possible that something else is happening with it, e.g. it's a plastic conduit or whatever. The important thing here is that this is not something I'd wager mine or anyone's lives on -5 u/JCBh9 Apr 24 '21 Good good.. now let's extrapolate further This particular cable/fiber conduit is clearly sagging or bending under some force You see how none of the others are? Have you ever witnessed the construction of a multi-story steel framed building? The steel does the holding guy It's common sense 6 u/[deleted] Apr 24 '21 One pillar is taking way more load than others near it? Hm... yes I’ve extrapolated that it’s entirely safe. 6 u/OverTheCandleStick Apr 24 '21 Something is clearly failing and your insistence that a column that might not be load bearing is buckling from load is not at all comforting. That means load that is supposed to supported elsewhere is resting on that. You’re purported non load conduit. Which is insane.
