Almost 30 years ago, in sunny Spain, a friend of mine was studying to become an Electrical Engineer. Among the things he told me would be under his responsibility, would be approving the plans for industrial buildings. “So your curriculum includes some architecture?”, I asked. “No need”, he responded, “you just put the numbers into a program and it spits out all that’s needed”.
Fast forward to 2006, when an industrial hall in Poland, built by a Spanish company, and turned into a disco, succumbed under the weight of snow on its roof, killing 65 people.
Wonder if someone forgot to check the “it snows in winter” option… 🙄
My turn.
