Forensic Engineering

Forensic Engineering

Determining the causes of structural damage or the undesirable conditions—member failure, water infiltration, corrosion, excessive deflection—often requires careful investigation and knowledge about how structural materials behave.

The engineering staff at Structuretech Associates has the expertise and experience to recognize potential sources of trouble. By discussing issues with owners, building personnel, and tenants, engineers can uncover even the most hidden or indirect cause of a problem.

From the complex to the routine, Structuretech Forensics Practice is driven by personalized service determined by the unique nature of each assignment. At the heart of our work is the thorough investigation of damage or failure of structures, building systems, and equipment. Our experts also regularly provide legal testimony.
