I'm not an engineer by any means but the beams on the outside look crazy top heavy to me. I are a engineer  It's common to have larger depth on the top of the column in these open interior structures to overcome the moment at the roof (moment is sort of like torque). I'm familiar with the building but I'm not sure who the engineering company is. Construction wasn't complete so I'm sure there will be a forensic engineer involved. Could be a lot of things at this point. True. Where the columns and the rafters come together there is a moment connection. My guess is that there was some horizontal or vertical bracing left out at some point along the way for expediency sake during the construction phase and it bit them on the ass.
