"textContent": "University of Houston professor of Mechanical Engineering Technology Weihang Zhu is spearheading an effort to redefine offshore safety, releasing a new roadmap designed to identify and close critical gaps in international crane operations. While structural failures account for less than 20% of offshore accidents, a staggering 80% of incidents are driven by human and organizational factors—a reality that Zhu says current global standards fail to address consistently.",
