Engineering MECHANICS
Behind every failure lies a mechanical truth to uncover
WHEN MECHANISMS REVEAL THEIR SECRETS
Investigating breakdowns, failures or malfunctions of mechanical components, equipment, and systems is part of a mechanical engineer’s daily routine. Our team combines technical expertise with scientific rigor to identify the root causes of material fatigue, manufacturing defects, assembly errors, and extreme operating conditions. Whether to understand a failure, validate reliability, or prevent future incidents, we give meaning to each damaged component to help you reach a solid conclusion about the cause (s) of the incident.
FIRES AND FAILURES: THE MECHANICAL INVESTIGATION THAT MAKES THE DIFFERENCE
Mechanical failures in vehicles, whether sudden breakdowns or fires, can lead to serious consequences. Our mechanical engineers conduct thorough analyses to determine the causes of various incidents, including component defects, design flaws, inadequate maintenance, or unforeseen circumstances. Our experts examine every part of the vehicle, from electrical systems to engines, to reconstruct the sequence of events that led to the failure or fire. This expertise plays a crucial role in investigations, insurance claims, and legal proceedings, providing solid technical evidence to establish responsibility or cause.

Our Areas of Expertise
Our mechanical engineers specialize in analyzing equipment failures in buildings (HVAC, lifting, or mechanical plumbing systems) as well as failures affecting all types of vehicles and their components (engine, brakes, transmission, electrical systems, etc.). Drawing on our expertise, we analyze the causes of these failures—whether due to poor design, faulty assemblies, inadequate materials, or extreme use conditions—to provide precise insights that help clients make informed decisions.
