Re:Condo wreckage hints at less steel in columns than design... by mikewarot on Sunday July 04, 2021 @09:53PM (#27734069)
It is possible to cut a single thread 12 meters long, but it would be hard to position on the construction site.

I worked in a gear shop for 5 years, yes, threads that long can be done. I suspect it might have been cheaper to get a rolled thread in that length, rather than a cut thread. Rolled thread is likely to be stronger, as it is formed, and not cut.
