In B, they refers to who? It does not refer to any one clearly

Even D sounds a bit weird because it uses past perfect had not been. The other two examples use simple past.

What is the source of this Q?

Amongst the provided 3 choices, Choice D is the best suited:
1) Among the facts ... were (there is not required as in Choice A)
2) such as should be used since steel columns is an example of contruction defect in this stmt.
3) To maintain parallelism : "welds that they folded.." and "a design whose connection " - they is not required. In this statement emphasis is on weld as weld is described in more detail; when they is placed emphasis is on they.

Hope this helps
