NEW S-E-A 360 PLATFORM & CONSTRUCTION MODELING

In a bold construction innovation, S-E-A—a forensic engineering firm founded nearly 50 years ago—has recently introduced an integrated suite of sophisticated technology and expertise designed to provide owners, architects, engineers, contractors and insurance carriers with a turnkey approach to Construction Modeling. The new S-E-A 360 Platform™ provides an accurate and detailed digital record of construction-related information that far exceeds the data collected by conventional methods.
S-E-A engineers and technicians developed this exclusive combination of software and hardware because more than one billion dollars is paid-out annually in the United States for legal fees, settlements, verdicts, testing and expert consulting in the construction industry. The S-E-A 360 Platform can collect, combine and digitally archive a comprehensive array of digital data so construction methods can be reviewed in near real-time and archived for “as-built” contract compliance, future examination and use in conflict resolution.
“This is the future of digital construction data,” said Ryan Siekmann, S-E-A Manager of Imaging Sciences Group. “It took us a few years to put all the elements and work flows together, but now we are confident we can assist clients in planning for future exposures, claims and reduce litigation costs before a project is turned-over.”
The S-E-A 360 Platform provides a format for:
• Controlling risks associated with construction claims, labor, expenses and accidents using 3-D laser technology
• Providing complete in-the-field, near real-time, measurement and data collection
• Delivering accurate 3D-Data that can be used by carriers, contractors, developers, architects and tradesmen for BIM, Auto-Cad and REVIT modeling services
• Capturing and preserving digital data in accordance with forensic evidence standards.
Established in 1970, S-E-A is a recognized worldwide leader in forensic analysis, investigation and product testing. The firm provides scientific expert analysis for a wide range of services to reveal the cause of vehicle, product, material, fire, electrical and/or structural failures and mitigates the risks involved with new product introductions. For nearly 50 years, engineers and investigators have served nationally and internationally as analytical litigation experts. Headquartered in Columbus, Ohio, S-E-A employs 280 associates nationwide.
