Chinese company plans to build world's tallest building in only 90 days

3. So should we start collecting for the Changsha Tragedy Victims Memorial Fund now?

I figure it should be ready to go when when it becomes clear that this company wanted to showboat by doing too many complex things at once and neglected some factor that proves to be outside the parameters they calculate for (quality of material, quality of the foundation, quality of the assembly when under super-tight time pressure, the overall design itself, seismic forces, wind forces, etc.)

The biggest engineering disasters happen when a) the design pushes past experience so some unknown factor may become important, b) someone cuts corners on quality of materials or work to save money and/or time, or c) both.

And this project is flirting with "c".
