Structural Investigations

 

Problem solving efforts to address apparent structural defects or damage sustained by a building or parking structure that may constitute an inconvenience or even a danger to users. Initially involves visual observation, but in some cases could later entail calculations and materials testing, in planned, deliberate steps, so that root causes can be determined or at least effective modifications prescribed if appropriate. For Building Solutions, this kind of investigation is always performed by a qualified Professional Engineer.
