We investigate network planning and design under volatile conditions of link failures and traffic overload. Our model is a non-simultaneous multi-commodity problem, with any particular two link failure being considered as one scenario. We show that the optimal solution model is not practically solvable for real-world problems and hence an efficient heuristic is provided which is
