The Weight of Design: Story of a Skyscraper

Overview

Neha Sharma, a talented structural engineer, lands a prestigious position at Khanna Enterprises to oversee the construction of Khanna Tower, a 60-story skyscraper set to redefine Mumbai's skyline. However, early into the project, she discovers severe geological inconsistencies-unstable soil, hidden fault lines, and an ancient temple foundation beneath the site. Despite her warnings, corporate executives prioritize speed and cost, pressuring her to approve a flawed foundation design. As Neha battles corporate greed, engineering ethics, and political interference, she finds herself isolated within the company. Rivals exploit her concerns to undermine her credibility, while internal forces manipulate data to cover up critical structural risks. When monsoon rains and unexpected seismic activity expose the building's vulnerabilities, Neha races against time to develop a hybrid foundation solution that integrates modern engineering with ancient construction wisdom. With lives at stake, she must decide whether to comply with the company's demands or risk her career-and personal safety-by exposing the truth. As the tower's instability worsens, Neha's fight escalates into a corporate showdown where whistleblowing could cost her everything. A gripping legal and engineering thriller, The Weight of Design explores the high-stakes world of urban development, the ethics of construction, and the unseen forces that shape the skylines we trust.
