This is what the engineers claim, and then they tack on a 50% margin of error they don't bother to explain because the business major ghouls would make them remove it if they knew.

And then builders remove a third to save money. Resulting with just barely standing building.

Both material factors and load factors are very well explained and grounded, they are not arbitrary. The problem is that they are too technical to explain to a non-engineer.
