As a companion to our Building Envelope Failures presentation, this presentation deals with how mechanical forensic engineers investigate and diagnose internal plumbing (water) related claims. As insurance claims resulting from water damage to buildings continue to increase in both frequency and severity, Arcon’s Mechanical Engineers are increasingly called upon to investigate and diagnose the plumbing failures that led to the claim.
This presentation provides insight as to how plumbing-related failures arise, the symptoms that are often evident in the primary types of failures and how to verify the failures. While this presentation uses the residential single-family home context, the concepts and scenarios are also applicable to multi residential, commercial & industrial properties.
