It teaches attorneys the basics of forensic engineering while providing guidance to accident reconstructionists on conducting an investigation into a construction worksite accident. Construction Accident Reconstruction will introduce attorneys and engineers to the proper methods of investigating an accident case of this type. It informs and challenges the reader to think about accident reconstruction in new ways so that they can better represent the workers injured on the construction site. This book presents the statistics of fatal and non-fatal accidents to acquaint the reader with the magnitude of the number of people who are seriously injured in the construction industry every year.
