    		I haven't got the statistics to hand, but according to David Icke a few of the huge American companies hired to rebuild Iraq should include the company you're looking for. In the UK Ove Arup are a more specialised company based in architecture but the buildings they produce are some of the best and most well paid for. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ove_Arup

    What building construction company built the John Hancock Tower in Boston, Massachusetts?

    The tallest build in a famous city is 62 storeys high and covered in glass panels. The proud owners of the new building were horrified when glass panels started to fall off the building, causing danger and damage in the surrounding area. It transpired that the glass manufacturer had been negligent in supplying glass which was not properly pre-stressed, as specified in the building designs. The company that owed the building instituted a lawsuit against the glass company claiming millions of dollars worth of damages. They had an excellent case and would have won the suit, but one week before it was due to start they dropped all claims against the glass company and received no compensation whatsoever. Why?
