Step 1 of 2

Post-event rapid assessment services provide immediate structural evaluation following earthquakes, storms, floods, or other damaging events. This service helps owners quickly determine if structures are safe for occupancy and identify damage that requires immediate attention. We deploy mobile monitoring teams and portable sensor systems that can be on-site within hours of an event.

Our nationwide rapid response includes portable vibration monitoring, crack detection systems, and tilt measurement tools. We work with emergency management agencies, insurance companies, and property owners to assess structural integrity after significant events. Our assessments follow FEMA, USGS, and local building code guidelines for post-event evaluations.

This monitoring helps prioritize repair efforts and ensures public safety in the aftermath of disasters. We provide clear, actionable reports that help decision-makers determine whether structures can be reoccupied or require evacuation. Our systems can detect micro-damage that might not be visible to the naked eye.

We provide mobile sensor deployment, rapid data analysis, and emergency reporting services. Our teams are trained for working in disaster zones and can operate independently or alongside first responders. We deliver preliminary findings within hours and detailed reports within days of deployment.

Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly can you deploy after an event nationwide?

Our rapid assessment teams nationwide can be on-site within 4-6 hours of notification. We maintain emergency response equipment in strategic locations across the country for immediate deployment.

What types of events do you assess?

We assess structures after earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, tornadoes, and other damaging events nationwide. Our protocols follow FEMA guidelines and local emergency management procedures.

Can you assess occupied buildings?

Yes, our portable systems nationwide allow assessment of occupied structures without disruption. We use wireless sensors and non-invasive measurement techniques for safe evaluation.

How do you prioritize assessments?

We work with local authorities nationwide to prioritize critical infrastructure, public buildings, and high-occupancy structures. Our assessments help determine safe re-entry and repair priorities.

What about insurance claims documentation?

Our reports nationwide include detailed measurements and photos that support insurance claims. We can correlate structural damage with event data to help establish causation.
