Wrap It In Duct Tape, Just In Case
-
The "cheesegrater" skyscraper in London -- it's slanted on one side, thus the nickname -- has a problem, that problem being that it's shedding bolts. A third bolt (within three months) spontaneously fell from the tower, and they're keeping an eye on it but don't seem to be overly concerned, blaming it on "hydrogen embrittlement" and replacing some other bolts just to play it safe. I don't know about you, but if I worked in a 47-story building, I'd be a little concerned if the bolts were falling out. (The Guardian)
