The process of figuring out why, how or how likely a physical structure or system is to fail requires a thought process that works in reverse of the process implemented in the original plan, design and build of the structure. Forensic Engineering and Engineering Design are two distinct disciplines which, in effective practice, require specialized knowledge and experience; at Harmonic, our Professional Engineers and Experts can deliver both.
