This investigation involved investigation of the collapse of a 30,000 square foot pre-fabricated metal building under heavy snow loads ...

Dye penetrant testing was performed to reveal cracking of structural steel that could not be viewed with the naked eye.

Damage caused to historic buildings from renovation efforts is one the leading causes of rapid degradation of water-struck clay brick and lime mortar structures . . . .

Prefab metal buildings are high dead to live load ratio structures that have been subject to investigation for non-redundant failure mode behavior.

Movement of this newly constructed residential property off its foundation was traced to code violations for attachment of the sill to foundation and heaving of the earth under the slab, lifting the building entirely off the foundation.
