FAILURE ANALYSIS

Hundreds of failure analyses have been conducted
over the years involving such varied causes as:

Corrosion, Weld Defects, Mechanical Overload
Design Deficiencies, Misapplication, Abuse
Coolant Failures, Lubrication Failures
These analyses have been conducted for such clients as:
Amoco Oil Company United States Navy Ryder Truck Rental
Aetna Life & Casualty US Coast Guard Ford Motor Company

 
Our Failure Analysis Philosphy

It is our continued philosphy that we examine not only the failed component, but the entire system in which it operated, thus determining the cause of the system failure, not just the component.

Although litigation is rarely involved, each analysis is conducted with the precautions necessary to withstand cross-examination. Having given numerous depositions, and expert witness qualifications, we are prepared to assist our clients to the fullest extent necessary.
