residential fire analysis

Our experts in fire analysis are able to investigate residential housing and provide a professional assessment of fire risk or scene analysis in the event of a fire. To determine the root explanation for a home fire we examine burn patterns for levels of severity, fire progression, and to locate paths of propagation that lead to the discovery of the original source and contributing factor(s). Materials testing can verify fire corrosion and damage while identifying contaminants and foreign material to aid in the explanation of combustion and/or ignition. X-Ray scanning methods can reveal internal structural damage despite burn contamination to check for sources of mechanical and electrical failure. Individual fire testing models of chemicals and materials can determine burn characteristics and chemical responses to high temperatures that allow our engineers to create an evidence-based forensic understanding of what transpired.
