The reputation of Chinese architects and builders.

Did nobody think of sealing the ceiling? New £400m railway station turns into enormous waterfall after heavy rain leaks through thousands of holes in the roof.

The reputation of China’s new £400million Shijiazhuang Railway Station has been washed away by multiple leaks during a rainstorm that turned the inside of the building into a giant waterfall.

Torrential rain hit Shijiazhuang city, Hebei province, on Thursday night, but its railway station, which is served by China’s high-speed trains, was not up to the job of sheltering passengers.

Water passed through the ceiling of the station, built in 2012, soaking passengers waiting inside.

Scary!!! Snow is heavy, hence  roofs have to be cleared constantly or they risk collapsing.

Roof was supported by positive air pressure, I'm sure this was intentional so Ziggy could get a new stadium built, with the taxpayers footing half the bill.

Vikings Stadium is the working title for a new stadium under construction for the Minnesota Vikings of the National Football League (NFL) in Minneapolis. Located on the site of their former home, the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome in Downtown East, the stadium will be their third permanent home.[10]

It will be the first new fixed roof stadium in the NFL since Ford Field, home of the Detroit Lions, opened in 2002. As of August 2014, the overall budget is estimated to be $1.024 billion of which $498 million is coming from state and city public contributions and $525.6 million coming from the team and private contributions.[3]

OP seems to fit with things as they have not the regulations to build under that they do in America. There is the video showing the difference between regulated buildings in California under a reading 6 quake and the same reading 6 class quake in China where they just slap up buildings with no regs
