Expert Interpretation
Usedby
Engineer T and Engineer B jointly in deciding not to acknowledge an error
Usedincontext
Engineer B, as Chief Structural Engineer, provided an authoritative professional interpretation that XYZ had responded professionally, that exploring alternative concepts was not within the expected scope, and that Engineer T's lack of construction safety training meant the risk could not reasonably have been assessed.
Source Evidence
Source Text
Engineer B responded that Engineer T and XYZ Consulting Engineers had responded professionally to the design project, they had recommended a straightforward structural modification approach, and they were not expected or asked to consider alternative concepts.
Text References
Engineer B responded that Engineer T and XYZ Consulting Engineers had responded professionally to the design project, they had recommended a straightforward structural modification approach, and they were not expected or asked to consider alternative concepts.
Engineer T was not trained in construction safety either by education (since civil engineering education typically does not include construction safety) or by specific experience (working for a construction contractor), Engineer T could not have reasonably known or assessed the level of worker safety risk posed by the connection location.
Having thus thoughtfully considered the matter, both Engineer T and Engineer B decided that the situation did not merit acknowledgement of 'an error.'
