Porch roofs are not usually designed to hold a couple dozen students who were probably dancing and jumping up and down. The collapse was probably a given considering the weight of some of the college students I see these days.

Looks to me like the entire porch collapsed, not just the roof.

A guy I know did home inspections. And he saw more than a few porch roofs that were held to the main structure by just a few long nails, driven in at 45 degree angles. No proper attachment at all.
The original contractor was trying to save a few dollars. No real harm done, right?

It was a frat house senior event. My daughter, who is on her way back from OSU today for summer break, lives down the road.
Earlier this year a OSU student died in Mexico after he went to get a girls phone on a plexiglass ledge and it gave way.

Structures designed and built to last 20, maybe 30 years are used for 100+ years.
