Heavy Truck Accident Reconstruction

Because accidents can happen to any vehicle, not just cars.

When we say vehicle accident reconstruction, we mean all types. Cars, trucks, heavy equipment, motorcycles, and tractor trailers all have accidents.

Accidents involving tractor trailers or other heavy equipment can be complex and devastating, resulting in property damage, injuries, even fatalities. To determine the cause and liability of heavy truck accidents, a thorough and accurate reconstruction is essential. SpecTest Forensics’ mechanical engineers can help.

Our mechanical engineers apply the principles of physics, mathematics, and engineering to design, analyze, and maintain mechanical systems and devices. Led by Jeff Hyatt, our team has the expertise and experience to examine the vehicle’s mechanics: brakes, steering, suspension, tires, engines, transmissions, hydraulics, and electronics. In addition, we evaluate the impact forces, speed, acceleration, deceleration, and trajectory of the vehicles involved.

Comprehensive Analysis

By conducting a comprehensive mechanical analysis, we provide valuable insight and evidence for heavy truck accident reconstruction. We can identify the mechanical failures, defects, or malfunctions that may have contributed to the accident (such as brake failure, tire blowout, steering loss, or hydraulic leak). Then we can also assess the compliance of the equipment with applicable safety standards and regulations including the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) rules.

Who Benefits?

Law firms and insurance companies benefit from heavy truck accident reconstruction. First, our mechanical engineers help establish the facts and circumstances of the accident. This information can support or challenge the claims and allegations of the parties involved. Second, we can help determine the extent and severity of the damages and injuries caused by the accident. Information that can affect the compensation and liability of the parties involved. Third, reconstruction experts  provide credible and reliable testimony and reports, which can strengthen a case to persuade the jury or judge.

SpecTest Forensics performs detailed and objective mechanical analysis of the vehicles and the accident scene. We share this useful and relevant information and evidence with the legal team and insurance company.
