Following these steps, all of the data is reviewed internally, and an engineering analysis is performed, this can involve wind analysis or other relevant analysis to determine the forces acting on a building as a result of the subject event. A thorough report is then created to assist clients in gaining an understanding of the damages pertaining to their building as a direct result of the event, including a scope of repairs.
TCE also utilizes its forensics capabilities to provide engineering support for laboratory testing products such as, windows, doors, anchors, custom-made solutions, etc. TCE’s services, allow manufacturing clients to attain desired performance levels in their products, and consequently improve them per industry standards. Through TCE’s expansive scope of services, construction stakeholders can enhance the longevity of buildings, while also bringing back stability to those affected by the damages to their property.
TCE deploys a team with expertise relevant to the scope of a project and brainstorms a game plan to provide the best possible evaluation for its clients. The team then conducts a thorough scientific analysis of the building to determine the root cause of the event which produced the damage to the building. The team starts by performing a preliminary investigation of the property and building’s history by gathering various documents (i,e, original construction and subsequent repairs/additions of the building). After which, TCE begins a non-destructive evaluation of the site.
TCE performs a diligent inspection of all the structural and building envelope components by documenting relevant data points, such as, field notes, pictures, videos, and personnel interviews to provide a comprehensive report to the client. If a need arises, TCE performs destructive testing to dig a little deeper and further examine the damage observed at the property.
