Civil and Structural Engineering

Knott Laboratory’s structural engineers have extensive experience analyzing structural failures, deficiencies, and building envelope distress such as air and water leakage.

We use high-tech investigation tools and techniques to accurately identify and report the root causes of structural distress. We have worked on numerous investigations for insurance professionals, lawyers, contractors, real estate, and management companies.

These investigations include cases ranging from single-family residential losses to large-scale commercial and industrial failures.

Furthermore, we are poised to respond to emergencies on short notice to protect structures from further damage and to preserve evidence. We can also provide design and field engineering support for temporary stabilization as well as repair and reconstruction projects.
