Australia-wide Forensic Engineering Investigation
Forensic engineering is primarily concerned with the link between engineering at law, whether civil or criminal. Our team employs Root Cause Analysis techniques to systematically examine the events leading up to an incident and identify the cause and contributing factors. This is done to discover the cause of failure in a particular material, component, product or structure.

Reporting Information
At the end of the investigation, the forensic engineer will provide you with a report which will include information on the problem and its cause, documental evidence (photographs, engineering drawings, testing records, quality control records, etc), potential solutions and suggestions for improvement, and evidence to support the entire report.
