Failure Analysis Header Image

The engineers at Higgins & Associates regularly conduct thorough assessments of failures that occur during construction or during the service life of a building. We collect and analyze the information necessary to determine the cause of structural failures and collapse, including the effect of external forces such as wind, hail, snow or other environmental or meteorological influence. We are able to perform finite element analysis using models that replicate behavior of a building under various conditions and loads to help our clients understand the root cause of a failure.
