I feel like this is absolutely not fine. I know the facade would help protect the interior, but if any shear force is applied to the core, that thing is less stable than a fifty-move jenga tower.
If the facade were to rot, let’s say, and someone were to lean against it, they might end up having the whole thing collapse on them.
I don’t work in construction, but I don’t think there’s any way that meets modern building codes. If a contractor left something like that for me, I’d be getting it inspected for sure.
Thank you… Anyone who had the case of the Hyatt Regency walkway collapse drilled into their heads in school recognizes the potential for shear force to fuck this column up.
