Forensic Investigations
Unfortunately, building systems can fail or perform at a level which is unsatisfactory to the owner, property manager, contractor or design professional. Terracon can assist clients by investigating the cause or causes of a failure and make recommendations for corrective measures. Areas of forensic investigations can include:
- Pavement Failure
- Foundation Evaluation
- Moisture Intrusion
- MEP Evaluation
- Roof/waterproofing Assessment
- Material Testing
- Structural Failure
- Fire Damage
- Document Review
- Litigation Support
Once the investigation is completed, the Terracon team can provide the necessary steps to implement the fix. These steps include construction document preparation, assistance with the bidding process and complete construction administration.
In cases where the failure occurs to an extent that attorneys are required, then one of Terracon’s senior professionals can provide support during dispute resolution, arbitration and, in extreme cases, the trial.
