Staggering that they have built a multi million pound building in the Rainy City and not accounted for water gathering
Wouldn't be surprised if it was because the building wasnt made watertight to programme, last time i walked site it was pissing in.

I believe this is just Chinese whispers. Its highly unlikely given the design and planning of a building of this scale these days.

Can't see him lying about it, as its him changing his job to work on this site. (currently working on the massive transport hub redevelopment in Stockport)
Starting this contract in a few weeks so soon see if he's lying or not.

I didn't mean he was lying, just stories get changed as they get told sometimes. What im trying to say is that having been involved in the construction of numerous large buildings over the past 30 years, albeit at the very early stages of foundation design. I have a good idea of the level of work and detail that goes into these projects , and to have to rebuild walls or whatever due to water ingress would be a massive failing in the design and construction process. I'm not saying these sorts of things don't happen but they are extremely rare.
