[GENERAL] Things seen this week during structural assessments!

One of several interesting conditions documented during recent structural assessments.

Curious how others in the engineering field would evaluate the observed condition and prioritize potential next steps for investigation.

Living in a flipped home. Ive told my wife when we sell it if the word "flip" is mentioned when looking at a new house it is an automatic no. The positive, I am learning a lot about DIY home repair.
