Building Envelope Consulting
Our building envelope consulting service provides comprehensive analysis of structural enclosures, identifying vulnerabilities in waterproofing, insulation, and material integration. We deliver actionable recommendations to prevent water intrusion, improve energy efficiency, and ensure code compliance. Our experts support projects from initial design reviews through construction oversight.
Diagnostic Testing
Diagnostic testing services evaluate building envelope performance using ASTM and AAMA standards. We conduct water penetration, air leakage, and material adhesion tests to identify failures in windows, roofing systems, and waterproofing membranes. Results guide targeted repairs that enhance durability and prevent costly damage.
Forensic Investigations
Forensic investigation services analyze construction defects and water intrusion incidents through scientific methodology. Our team documents failures in roofing, cladding, and envelope systems, providing expert reports that support litigation or remediation planning while maintaining strict adherence to evidentiary standards.
Expert Witness Services
Expert witness services deliver technical testimony in construction litigation cases. Our certified professionals provide court-ready analysis of building failures, including cause-and-effect assessments, repair cost estimations, and compliance evaluations backed by extensive field data and industry-recognized methodologies.
Peer Review Services
Peer review services evaluate construction documents for constructability and weatherization concerns. We identify design omissions that could lead to envelope failures, offering cost-saving recommendations during pre-construction phases to prevent expensive field modifications and performance issues.
