Sketches for these were found after the ship sank. Titanic's designers planned double davits to accommodate the extra lifeboats. Changes imminent to a passenger-based system.

While he did receive and pass on some iceberg warnings, he asked the senders to stop transmitting them. Under pressure to set new Trans-Atlantic speed record. Smith did not reduce his speed, despite warnings. How does the newest, largest, and most technologically advanced innovation, or the unsinkable, sink? - 90/10 rule. People assume that because we work in “new” media, we have “new problems” (with design, clients, specification, regulation etc.) 2 What’s YOUR project’s potential “iceberg”?
