Forensic engineering is where existing structures are examined for defects and a report prepared for repair or reconstruction.
Melbourne Civil & Structural Engineers forensic work extends across many areas of structural and civil engineering.
This includes a wide range of building defects ranging from small cracks in brickwork to major structural failure.
The brief was to get to root cause of a number of potentially unrelated structural problems in a Victorian house that had undergone a significant restoration/extension some 15 years ago. Adam demonstrated consummate theoretical knowledge and practical experience whilst completing his analysis before coming to fact based conclusions/recommendations. What I found most pleasing was his manner in explaining to us the thought processes in coming to the conclusions/recommendations and his professionalism in investigating ALL possible problems. I intend to recommend MCS to others who have a need for "deep" engineering experience.
