The Wheaton & Sprague Building Forensics Division was born in 2003 out of an increased demand to handle requests for material and serviceability failure investigations and studies. The Building Forensic Division provides investigation, pathology and emergency response services for clients that need answers based on fact, delivered in a timely fashion with definitive reporting.
At WSE, it is our belief that to have added value and legitimacy as structural forensic engineers, one must have practical, current and ongoing experience as practicing professional engineers. Our vast experience in design and engineering for the building envelope and the primary building structure allows us to assess problems thoroughly, be able to discern issues quickly, and then solve or provide practical or innovative solutions needed to address the problems. We are a one-stop, seamless solution for the identification and resolution of problems within the building structure and building envelope.
