Our three step investigative approach is instrumental in successfully diagnosing and retrofitting existing structures.

During the first phase of the Forensic Investigation, the structure is researched and information is gathered to assess the existing condition of the structure.

In the analysis phase, the desired modifications are incorporated into the design of the existing structure and evaluated for strength, serviceability, and compliance to current building codes.

Once the system has been analyzed, the most practical retrofit solution is selected. The final structural solution is based on constructability issues, time restraints, and construction costs.
