Ugh.
I thought the family owned construction company was going to be investigated.
The article explains the why.
What it didn’t highlight is just who is going to be held legally responsible.
Am I missing something here?
The article didn’t even do a very good job of explaining the why.
No specifics; just reference to a mistake in the engineer of record’s calculations. No discussion of how the shortcoming in the review process specifically occured; just that everybody that had a supervisory responsibility dropped the ball.
Of course, there are huge liability lawsuits in the courts, so the careful, bland text in this article is to be expected. In fact, the last few sentences read EXACTLY like something that would come out of a government agency.
