Forensics

When a building or structure’s components or materials perform poorly, suffer damage, or fail, our forensic experts stand ready to quickly investigate and identify the factors contributing to their current condition. Using sound engineering principles, years of experience, and specialized training, we conduct systematic investigations catered to our clients’ specific needs. Our technical reports focus on answering the questions identified at the outset of each investigation, with clear descriptions of the concepts involved and the implications for liability. Because American Structurepoint is a multidisciplinary firm, our forensic professionals can call upon in-house civil engineers, structural engineers, architects, transportation engineers, utility infrastructure engineers, IT professionals, and environmental scientists when needed for additional expertise. We are also well-versed in producing cost-effective repair designs for the issues encountered.
