Expert Forensic Engineering Services
AIS Forensic Engineering was established in 1999 to provide specialized forensic engineering services focused on mechanical and explosion safety. Our team has decades of experience conducting accident investigations, expert witnessing, and metallurgical analysis for clients in both public and private sectors, including insurance companies and government agencies. We specialize in boiler safety, pressure vessel explosions, piping failures, and steam condensate water hammer incidents. Our forensic analysis includes laboratory testing, evidence storage, and re-crating services with annual desiccant evaluation. We have investigated complex cases involving hydrogen embrittlement, caustic gouging, and turbine wreckage failures. Our experts have provided court-tested testimony and second-opinion evaluations for severe boiler overheating, superheater damage, and surface condenser tube failures.We maintain professional affiliations with organizations like the National Association of Stationary Operating Engineers and sponsor technical forums on pressure vessel safety. Our services extend to marine dockage hardware analysis, high-voltage electrical switchgear failures, and hydrogen chloride manufacturing explosions. We document findings through detailed accident reports and instructional analysis videos. Our team combines technical expertise with practical field experience to deliver accurate causation analysis for clients seeking resolution in complex engineering cases.

Services
Accident Investigations
Our team conducts comprehensive accident investigations for industrial mechanical failures and explosions. We analyze boiler safety incidents, pressure vessel ruptures, and piping failures using metallurgical testing and laboratory analysis. Our experts document findings through detailed reports and video demonstrations to establish causation for legal and insurance purposes.
Expert Witnessing
We provide expert witnessing services for mechanical engineering cases involving explosions and equipment failures. Our qualified experts deliver court-tested testimony based on forensic analysis of boiler safety incidents, pressure vessel explosions, and industrial accidents since 1999.
Metallurgical Analysis
Our metallurgical analysis services examine boiler tubes, pressure vessels, and piping failures. We assess damage from overheating, corrosion, and mechanical stress to determine failure causes. This includes evaluating superheater damage, surface condenser tube failures, and hydrogen embrittlement cases.
Boiler Safety Analysis
We specialize in boiler safety evaluations including drum cracking analysis, tube sheet inspections, and flue gas stack leak investigations. Our services cover residential hot water boilers and industrial high-temperature systems with expertise dating to our 1999 founding.
Evidence Storage
We offer secure evidence storage for mechanical failure investigations. Our services include re-crating, packing, and annual desiccant evaluation to preserve critical engineering evidence for ongoing legal and insurance cases.
