Faulty Design and Materials In Boston's Big Dig Project

By Liz (not verified) | Tue, 07/25/2006 - 6:04pm

I'm working on a story for Design News about the materials failure relative to the Big Dig design. Basically the entire issue of faulty bolt and epoxy assemblies throughout the project with more coming to light every day throughout the ongoing inspection process. I'm looking for comments from individuals for my story. I'm writing about how this is effecting the engineering community and how much is being discussed on this issue in blogs across the internet. Care to help?
