Read the National Society of Professional Engineers: Code of Ethics for Engineers and the

following ethics case study. Based on the code of ethics and your own independent

analysis and consideration, answer the following questions:

a. Which, if any, of the elements of the code of ethics were or may have been violated by

the scenario’s principal actors? State each of those rules of practice or professional

obligation by number and summary content, and indicate how it applies to the situation

at hand.

b. What actions should have been taken? Again, state the elements (by number and

summary content) of the code of ethics that command or suggest to take those actions.
