How do we help organizations discover root causes and build more resiliency to protect against fires and explosions?
Exponent leverages more than 50 years of experience in fire investigations to conduct rigorous root cause analysis of fires and explosions while also helping clients develop proactive fire prevention strategies.
Our teams are mobility equipped and can deploy to most incident sites to perform a wide array of fire investigation services including fire origin analysis, debris field mapping, three-dimensional scanning, explosion damage assessment, and facility inspection for potential fire and explosion hazards.
Exponent's multidisciplinary teams use advanced modeling tools including Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS), and Consolidated Model of Fire and Smoke Transport (CFAST), to evaluate explosions, wildfires, deflagrations, dust explosions, and heavy equipment fires. Our state-of-the-art testing facilities and laboratory research centers conduct rigorous analysis to provide answers for the most complex thermal-related incidents.
Our experts also provide expert testimony in litigation and arbitration cases using visual data demonstrations and computational flow models to demonstrate how fires progress, how flammable vapors disperse, and explosions propagate.
