Project Vulcan was a pre-War Grafton Steel Research and Development project at Grafton Steel Underground to increase steel forge efficiency.[1]
Background
One of the three projects undertaken by Grafton Steel, the goal of Project Vulcan was to increase steel yield at the Grafton Steel plant.[2] Potential methods were proposed, such as reducing the size of the forges, increasing their speed and output, or improving forge modularity in order to switch tasks more efficiently. However, little progress was made before the Great War.
Appearances
Project Vulcan is mentioned only in Fallout 76, introduced in the Wastelanders update.
Behind the scenes
In Roman mythology, Vulcan is the god of metal working and the forge.
