Forensic Investigations

Using the most up to date methods of investigation, VEDI has been involved in many investigative projects requiring solutions to an array of construction problems related to greenhouses and the exterior skins of buildings. Sensitive to our client's needs, VEDI utilizes a results orientated approach, ensuring our reports are precise and easy to understand.

Problems that commonly require our investigation include:

  • Insulating glass fogging
  • Water infiltration
  • Glass failures and cracks
  • Commercial Greenhouse Collapse
  • Glass coating irregularities
  • Wind & Snow damage
  • Condensation formation
  • Interior space overheating
  • Sealant's loss of adhesion
  • Corrosion / Dirt build-up
  • Anchors & structural problems
  • Specification deficiencies

VEDI has investigated projects for building owners, lawyers, and insurance companies throughout the United States and Canada. This work has resulted in VEDI making court appearances as an expert witness, as well as providing technical advice to lawyers for litigation, mediation and arbitration purposes.
