Forensic Engineering in Allegheny County, PA
Allegheny County construction crosses karst valleys where sinkholes and pinnacled carbonate rock make investigation the first insurance. Failure diagnosis around Allegheny County runs on cores, testing, and petrography, the way Pennsylvania claims work eventually demands. Petrographic examination of Allegheny County concrete reads the material's history, and the PA timeline of damage gets established. We support Allegheny County on a mobilization basis from Texas, and Pennsylvania licensure is addressed in the proposal, never discovered later.
- Concrete distress investigation: cracking, scaling, spalling, low strength results
- Core sampling and testing of hardened concrete per ASTM C42
- Petrographic examination of hardened concrete per ASTM C856
- Foundation and pavement performance investigations
- Documented chain of custody and photo documentation built for litigation
FAQ · Allegheny County
Who performs the investigation?
Field sampling, coring, and laboratory testing are performed by our certified technicians and laboratory. Engineering evaluation, opinions, and any expert testimony are performed by licensed engineers engaged for the matter, so the deliverable is sealed by the professional whose name is on it.
When should we call — before or after the lawyers?
Before. Physical evidence degrades, gets repaired, or gets demolished. Getting cores, samples, and photo documentation captured under a defensible chain of custody early is what keeps the technical record intact regardless of where the dispute goes.
Can you investigate a project you also tested?
Not without disclosure. If we performed the acceptance testing on the same project, we will say so up front — an independent investigator is usually the right call, and we will help you find one.
