What Is Forensics Engineering?

Forensic engineering is a scientific and investigative approach focused on diagnosing the causes of structural and material failures within a building. This often requires destructive testing to identify hidden faults or verify the underlying reasons behind specific defects.

Our forensic engineering solutions can benefit property owners, developers, legal teams, and anyone involved in construction dispute resolution who needs a clear and accurate understanding of building performance issues.

Forensics Engineering Process

At MJ Engineering Projects, we follow a detailed, step-by-step approach in each forensic engineering case to ensure thorough and accurate results. This includes:

Forensic Engineering

Site inspection

Our team begins with an on-site inspection to document any visible issues or construction defects. This inspection lays the groundwork for further analysis and helps determine whether additional testing is needed.

Destructive investigation

If necessary, we proceed with destructive investigation techniques, such as cutting through surfaces or removing structural components, to reveal hidden deficiencies and verify what’s causing the defect. This step is essential for cases where non-visible factors are suspected of causing building issues.
