Case context
Engineer A designed a structural system in a severe weather region using established but outdated methods, having generally attempted to stay current but not having encountered the newly published severe weather design standards that would have prevented the structural failure.
Compliance status
unmet
Confidence
0.91
Importance
high
Obligated party
Engineer A
Obligation statement
Engineer A was obligated to actively monitor and incorporate newly published severe weather structural design standards into their design practice, given their specialization in structural design in a severe weather region, and their general awareness of evolving design trends in that domain.
Temporal scope
Ongoing throughout active practice in the severe weather region; specifically applicable at the time of design of the subject building
Relationships

Source Evidence
Source text
While Engineer A generally attempts to stay current on changing structural design trends, Engineer A was not familiar with this recent technical literature
Text references
These new and improved severe weather design standards have been published in the most recent technical literature
While Engineer A generally attempts to stay current on changing structural design trends, Engineer A was not familiar with this recent technical literature
new and improved design methods have recently been developed to address the severe weather conditions in the location in which Engineer A practices
