The Use of Forensic Engineering in Sinkhole Investigations
Normally forensic engineering is applied to the analyses of a structure or anthropogenic material that has failed or undergoes unacceptable deformation. However, in a sinkhole investigation one does not normally consider all forensic information available. This paper provides a discussion of forensic methods and techniques available to geotechnical engineers in the investigation of foundation conditions where distress is caused by sinkhole activity. It discusses tools for analyzing and interpreting the natural conditions present in the investigation. An example is given of an investigation where forensic engineering should have been used to determine the cause for distress in a building.
