Precision Forensic Testing

We inspect structures and heavy equipment, such as automobiles and elevators, to analyze damage and identify the cause of failure. Clients request the precision and accuracy of ATS’ forensic testing services in scenarios such as the following:

Forensic Engineering Investigations

Clients may turn to ATS to resolve questions about a failure or accident’s cause and origins. Clients need accurate and reliable information after a mechanical or structural disaster. ATS forensic engineers can investigate the causes and origins of fires, structural damages, equipment malfunctions, and traffic accidents. We frequently inspect damage caused by the following:

As part of an investigation, we may perform various types of testing in our engineering laboratory. Our experts regularly perform fact-finding investigations and tests to help clients plan a response that complies with the relevant industry standards.

In certain situations, an ATS representative may support the client with contractor bid evaluations.

Before or after repairs, clients may wish to confirm if their products or structures meet industry standards, such as:

ATS can also send a court-qualified expert witness to testify in a civil or criminal trial. In a legal case, the jury’s outcome may rest on their ability to understand the technical details of the case without having engineering experience. An effective expert witness from ATS can clearly and credibly explain the facts and their relevance to the trial.
