Coefficient of Friction Testing

Floor slip resistance testing is the science of measuring the coefficient of friction (or resistance to slip accidents) of flooring surfaces, either in a laboratory (before or after installation) or on floors in real life situations. If there is a slip and fall accident we can determine if there is a defect in the floor material, or it’s improper application.

ADA Accessibility

The Department of Justice’s revised regulations for Titles II and III of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA). These regulations contain specific accessibility requirements for private sector and public entities. We conduct ADA compliance evaluations.

A witness with a defined area of expertise and on that basis and strictly within that area, is allowed to give opinion evidence to the Court (or jury, as the case may be). We opine on premises security negligence, safety and security standards of care and best practices.

Courts / Judicial Planning & Analysis

Strategic Planning for Judiciary needs. Courthouses are the most difficult design challenge there is because of the conflicting circulation paths and competing security needs. We conduct post occupancy evaluations and programmatic needs assessments.
