Good ole Chinesuim!
A few years ago we had a bascule bridge structure fabricated in China ….twice. Lol
First one ended up finding plate delamination in plate that was already integrally welded in. And to top it off, the little buggers were sneakin in at night and welding to make up schedule, when no QA or QC present.
What a mess. First one got towed out to sea and dumped to make a reef. Second one arrived about 3 years late…
Dunno how our company faired in the litigation as I left the company before it was settled.
You guys up in Van or on the island might know of it. Johnson St bridge in Victoria.
