- CSST - Experts Investigate Fire in Upscale Home
A fire broke out in a recently constructed upscale home during a heavy thunderstorm. Robson Forensic fire investigators were retained to investigate the fire and determine the origin and cause. Our investigator concluded that the origin of the fire was under the first floor where a hole was discovered in the flexible gas tubing. He determined that the hole had been created by a lightning strike. Based on these findings, additional Robson experts were engaged to determine if the work performed by the electrical contractor during the home’s construction was a cause of the hole in the gas tubing.

- Scald - Biomechanics Expert Investigates Ability of Users to Avoid Injury

As soon as the hot water hit her skin, she was scalded. We measured the water temperature at over 185 degrees F. Tracing the lines back through the system showed ,how in the course of repairs, maintenance workers had piped the bibb from a tap into the nearby hot water piping instead of the cold.

- Architectural & HVAC Professional Liability - Expert Investigates Cause of Mold
A couple hired a construction contractor and his newly-licensed architect son to design and build a high-end modern house. The design included large expanses of glass wall panels. The massive heating system (four air handlers and a boiler) was provided as a design/build effort by an HVAC subcontractor. Even so, during a relatively mild heating season the owners were unable to maintain comfort near the windows. In fact, so much water ran off the inside of the glass that it saturated adjacent surfaces and caused mold.
