Decoding Failure

Failure can be defined as an unacceptable difference between expected and observed performance (Leonards, 1982; Delatte, 2009). The 11th Forensic Engineering Congress brings together professionals from across the built environment—engineers, architects, owners and operators, legal and insurance professionals—to examine failure events. Join us as we explore real-world case studies and learn directly from experts in the field of forensic engineering.

Organized by ASCE’s Forensic Engineering Division, this Congress convenes forensic engineering professionals from a variety of disciplines to share their knowledge and experience in understanding failures. Attendees will have the opportunity to earn continuing education credits, present technical papers, participate in workshops led by industry leaders, and expand their professional network within the forensic engineering community. Join us as we collaborate in the pursuit of Decoding Failure.
