      Ten years after original publication in 2000, the second edition of this practical and thorough handbook offers extensively revised coverage of the important topics relevant to forensic structural engineering and expert witness activity. The scope of such activities encompasses thorough detailing of the possible origins of errors, investigation and analysis of failures, and collaboration with the legal profession for assigning responsibilities. Nineteen contributed chapters offer the details of design and construction codes and standards; the first steps after a failure; the nature, magnitude, and consequences of loads; design errors, construction defects, and project miscommunication; analyses specific to various materials including steel, concrete, masonry, and timber; and legal concerns and litigation.
