Mr. Carlton has six years of experience analyzing mechanical component failure for machines and plumbing equipment. Investigations he has led include appliance failures, corrosion damage, mechanical
fires, failed electrical components, material defects, plumbing failures with knowledge in plumbing code. System failure scenarios he has diagnosed include:
Flooding caused by appliance failures: refrigerators, water heaters, clothes and dish washers
Overloading of load bearing or plumbing fastener connections
Material degradation caused by corrosion or environmental stress cracking
HVAC and industrial machinery failures
Slip trip and fall surface analysis and slip resistance testing
Fatigue failure due to cyclical stresses or temperature fluctuation
Electrical component failure: continuity and electrical resistance testing
Crack propagation caused by material defects
