ENR Examines Floor Slab Deflection Issues Following Victory for Sheridan and Hotel Client

Glaser Weil client Chestlen Development was the subject of an Engineering News‑Record (ENR) article titled “On Tutor Perini Project, Floor Slab Deflection Problem Apparently Had No Clear Owner,” which explores the construction failures and coordination breakdowns underlying a delayed 51‑story hotel project in Philadelphia.
