The analysis of electrical failures involves not only examination of the manufacturing and installation standard of care, but also detailed analysis of the evidence through X-ray imaging, CT Scans, electrical analysis and microscopy to find the cause of these failures. Today's environment commonly includes battery systems and solar installations.

By applying the laws of physics, material characteristics, knowledge of the local environment and understanding of human behavior, vehicular accidents can be reconstructed to provide a moment-by-moment account of the events leading up to a collision or other incident. Specialized software is used to model the vehicle and human motions, and assist in explaining how the accident occurred. The recreation of the accident can be performed under various constraints, and the resulting scenarios compared. When applicable the analysis and recreation is aided via information from event data recorders, from Berla interrogation tools, drone footage of the incident location, and 3-dimensional vehicle scans.

Forensic architecture includes building failure assessment, premises liability, standard of care, human factors, ADA compliance, and architectural/facility design analysis for insurance, legal, industrial, and other clients. Our staff brings a strong emphasis in technical assessments for both commercial and residential building envelope systems, building codes, construction documents preparation, and the standard of general architect’s or contractor responsibilities.

Individuals involved in accidents can be subjected to accelerations in direction and magnitude not typically experienced. By applying mechanical principles to the human body, evaluations of the expected injury profile can be created. Such evaluations include trauma to bones, soft tissues, extremities, and internal organs.

Construction defect analyses includes the evaluation of claims as they relate to design objectives, building plans and specifications, and standard of care. These evaluations include assessment of structural elements (walls, foundations, and framing) roofing, grading and drainage, mechanical and electrical systems, waterproofing, glazing, and finishes.

Mechanical engineering covers a wide range of topics, from the design and development of products and devices, the analysis of force, movement, strength and the anticipated modes of failures in specific components. This knowledge is broadly applied to the reconstruction of accidents, the failure of automotive and equipment components, and the investigation of product defects. Our team has experience in the automotive, aerospace, robotics, consumer product and other industries. We use that knowledge to provide design guidance, or in the case of failure analysis, we determine the underlying causal factors of a given failure.

We use that knowledge to provide design guidance, or in the case of failure analysis, we determine the underlying causal factors of a given failure.

Our staff investigates structural failures ranging from cracking and delamination of architectural finishes to foundation settlement and structural collapses. Our background includes comprehensive analyses in the field of structural engineering in new and historic structures constructed of wood, concrete, masonry, adobe, steel and premanufactured components. Additionally, we provide structural design services for both historic and contemporary buildings.

Human factors is the scientific discipline of the interaction between humans and elements of a system, applying knowledge of people and how they function within an environment. It allows for the evaluation of attentiveness, perception, memory, and performance, and is the doorway to understanding reasonable or reasonably safe behavior. The proper application of human factors in forensic investigations provides insight into why an incident occurred, and how it could have been avoided.

Cause analysis of fires, explosions and noxious gas exposure includes analysis of natural gas and propane fueled appliances, ventilation systems, electrical components, control systems and workmanship. Physical examination, exemplar testing and computer modeling – all done at our laboratory facility - are used to find how the circumstances came together to cause an event.

Safety issues can concern everything from consumer products to industrial machinery to workplace safety and can be manifested through defective designs, warnings, training, instructions, or misuse. Our engineers work with clients in determining causal factors and help them evaluate theories of defense, liability, or subrogation.

The proper analysis of component failures can provide valuable assistance in determining the validity of product design or the presence of a defect. High magnification observations, elemental analysis and physical testing are some of the tools used to identify and characterize materials in question – including metal alloys, ceramics and specialty materials. Knowledge of the process used in component manufacturing also provide pertinent information to examine material failures.

We investigate product failures ranging from consumer appliances to industrial equipment. The experience and diverse background of our engineers enable us to evaluate product performance in the context of applicable US and EC safety standards and regulations. We have the means to test a variety of products.

Roadway design and traffic engineering includes the design, planning and operation of roads, streets and highways and their interactions with other modes of transportation - from pedestrians to railways. Elements such as instructional and directional signage, permanent and temporary traffic controls, rights of way, speed limits and human behavior are part of the analysis of safe and efficient travel.

The understanding of workplace safety includes review of documented processes, training, selection of appropriate hardware and dealing with evolving environments. Members of our staff have served as safety directors at industrial plants and construction firms, and served as representatives to national committees on construction, safety, and health for OSHA.
