WHAT W. F. DEXTER DOES

Building Code Compliance

Adhere to local regulations and codes throughout construction to ensure structures meet established safety, health, and environmental standards. This process covers critical areas such as structural integrity, fire safety, electrical systems, and accessibility. Aligning with legal construction requirements ultimately protects occupants, enhances building safety, and reduces liability.

Legal Research

Specializing in construction code analysis and liability assessment, our research delves into building standards, regulatory requirements, and case law to ensure compliance and mitigate risk. We identify applicable codes, examine legal precedents, and clarify faults in construction-related disputes. Focusing on thorough, evidence-based research, we support clear, defensible positions for all parties involved in construction projects.

Construction Failure Analysis

Conducting comprehensive analysis of construction failures to identify root causes and assess structural integrity. Evaluating drawings, safety notes, and failure reports to determine contributing factors, ensure code compliance, and recommend corrective measures for future projects.

Accessibility Compliance

Ensure every project meets the highest standards of accessibility for everyone. Provide barrier-free access with automatic doors, wide entryways, and tactile paving to ensure all individuals have easy access to buildings.
