...My expert witness experience includes cases dealing with issues such as defective construction, water infiltration, storm/fire/explosion damage assessment, structural collapse, failure of temporary shoring, construction site accidents, roofing failure, improper design and manfacture of windows and handrail failures.

Mechanical Engineering, Accident Reconstruction - Automotive, Vehicle Fires, Crash Data, Failure Analysis, Origin and Cause, Vehicle Mechanical, Farm Equipment, CDR, EDR, Heavy Truck Data, Motorcycle Crash, Infotainment

...These investigations have included but are not limited to an elevator failure involving materials and design issues, a personal injury involving a paper shredder, multiple cases involving farm equipment and personal injuries, machine guarding cases, chair collapse cases, bolted joint failures, patient lifter failures, vehicle hand control issues, and tipped telehandler and boom crane cases. My automotive background coupled with my two degrees, extensive testing and research and continuing studies qualifies me for most aspects of crash investigation and reconstruction. Some of the cases investigated include a vehicle tie rod failure that triggered a cross over crash, multiple unintended vehicle acceleration cases and cases involving heavy truck brake failure. I have also been involved in multiple cases involving tire failure analysis....

Structural Engineering, Civil Engineering - Personal injuries, slip & fall, Construction Defects, Code review, structural assessments for conservatorship cases, Property condition assessments, Floor collapse, Building envelope assessments & consulting, panels failures, Structural distress, Fire damage structural assessment, Foundation defects

An accomplished and award winning structural engineer and experienced expert witness, I hold a Bachelor of Science degree in Structural Engineering and a Master of Science in Structural Engineering from FAU. As a licensed Professional Engineer (PE) with active licensure in Pennsylvania and several other states, my professional credentials are further reinforced by a current NCEES record. Drawing from a wealth of experience, my expertise lies in the evaluation, repair, and rehabilitation of existing structures. This encompasses a spectrum of tasks, including load-bearing wall removals, addressing floor sags, and managing foundation movements and failures. Additionally, I possess the capability to accurately pinpoint the cause and origin of structural deficiencies and damages resulting from accidents....
