Structural Integrity Inspection for Construction Defects, Foundation Failures, and Seismic Hazards Determinations, plus Referrals for Repair,  Reinforcement,  Restoration, and  Reconstruction Services by Civil Engineers and Other Scientists and Engineers

 

Charles B. Pyke, Ph.D., President, CEO, and Principal Scientist of  Environmental Science & Energy, Inc., offers structural integrity inspections for the determination of construction defects, foundation failures, and seismic hazards in structures and facilities listed below.  We also offer referrals for recommended repair, reinforcement, restoration, and reconstruction services for many of the structures found to be defective or in danger of collapse or severe damage in the event of a natural or man-made disaster or adverse event.   In addition, we offer design of new structures and facilities.

Structures and Facilities:

  • Police stations - in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, and overseas.

  • Fire stations - U.S. and other countries.

  • Other law enforcement buildings - U.S. and other countries.

  • Courthouses and justice department buildings - U.S. and other countries.

  • Fire trucks and other large police and fire vehicles.

  • Prisons and jails - in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, and overseas.

  • Juvenile Detention facilities - U.S. and other countries.

  • Half-way houses and other intermediate penal housing - U.S. and other countries.

  • Other penal institutions and criminal justice buildings - U.S. and other countries.

  • Water supply pipelines and conduits serving police and fire stations, and prisons, above and below ground.

  • Sewage pipes and conduits, serving police and  fire stations, and prisons, above and below ground.

  • Roads and railroad tracks serving police and fire stations, and prisons, and other law enforcement buildings.

  • Other public utility facilities.

The defects and hazards include, but are not limited to:

  • Faulty, shoddy, or generally poor original construction.

  • Construction that met building and seismic codes at the time of the original construction, but which fail to meet today's codes, and which could be a hazard to life and property in the future.

  • Construction that met building and seismic codes at the time of the original construction, but which have deteriorated over the years or were damaged or weakened by fire, weather, floods, tsunamis, earthquakes, ground subsidence, landslides, avalanches, or blasts (including sonic booms or nearby demolitions). 

  • Foundation failures of police and fire stations, resulting from corrosion, earthquakes, subsidence, liquefaction, ground shifts, and/or gradual deterioration of materials from water currents and  weather.   

  • Corrosion, over the years, of road and bridge components associated with, or built in conjunction with, police stations, fire stations, and other law enforcement buildings.

  • Damage caused by terrorist attacks, or hidden damage caused by sabotage or by attempted sabotage that appeared at first to have failed. 

  • Corrosion, over the years, of structural components of police stations, fire stations, and other law enforcement buildings. 

  • Asbestos that may be present in some structures.

  • Landslides:  threats; slides that have occurred since construction of a structure and may have weakened the structure.

  • Earthquake faults and potential for major shaking or permanent ground deformation that could cause a major structural  failure, especially one that could lead to a leak, spillage, or release of toxic gases or liquids into the environment. 

  • Proximity of a structure to earthquake faults and soil vulnerable to magnified shaking.

  • Potential for subsidence of the soil beneath a police station, fire station, or other law enforcement building, including differential subsidence within a structure's footprint.

Services Offered: *

  • Structural integrity inspection of the structure or facility.

  • Construction defects determination.

  • Foundation failure determination.

  • Investigation of catastrophic failure or major damage resulting from earthquakes, storms, or human-generated activities (terrorist attacks, sabotage, major accidents, etc.). 

  • Structural analysis for damage, deterioration, or corrosion over the years.

  • Seismic and landslide hazards determination and seismic safety analysis

  • Repair of defects.

  • Mitigation, overhaul, or renovation of a police or fire station - partial or total.

  • Asbestos removal.

  • Reinforcement of the police station, fire station, or other law enforcement structure or facility.

  • Restoration or reconstruction of the police or fire station,  or other law enforcement structure or facility.

  • Protection against maximum credible earthquake.

  • Protection against maximum credible wind event.

  • Demolition or removal of entire police station, fire station, or other law enforcement building or facility.

  • Replacement of entire police station, fire station, or other law enforcement building or facility.

  • Design and construction of new police stations, fire stations, or other law enforcement buildings or facilities - U.S. and overseas.

  • Research into improvement in the construction of various law enforcement buildings and facilities. 

* NOTE: Most inspection, evaluation, construction defects determination, seismic hazards determination, structural analysis, foundation failure analysis, seismic safety analysis, and/or other inspection-related services - plus construction, building, demolition, removal, repair, reinforcement, retrofit, overhaul, restoration, reconstruction, rebuilding, enlargement, and/or other building-related construction and remedial services - are referred to, and administered by, other environmental or engineering companies.  Clients are to deal directly and entirely with said referred environmental and/or engineering company or companies for any and all said referred services.  

Environmental Science & Energy, Inc. is not directly involved with any of said referred services. Environmental Science & Energy, Inc. does not manage, supervise, oversee, coordinate, or facilitate any of said referred services.  Environmental Science & Energy, Inc. hereby declares that our corporation is not, and cannot be held,  legally responsible for any of said referred services and that our corporation assumes no liability at any time - past, present, or future - for any  projects, cases, jobs, work, tasks, or other services totally referred to other companies or agencies.

This caveat does not apply to most services offered directly by Environmental Science & Energy, Inc., including our data services, environmental planning and assessment, forensic expert and testimony services, weather forecasting, certified weather observers, certified hazardous materials training, global warming modeling, research and studies, public lectures, scientific software, and scientific documentaries, plus most scientific instrumentation and some of our renewable energy development (not requiring the installation of large hardware items, which are referred to other companies - in which case this caveat does apply).
