Rimkus has been in the consulting business since 1983, offering our clients an array of experts that spans nearly all engineering disciplines, many scientific disciplines, architecture, and forensic analysis. This broad range of expertise, together with the years of experience our staff members bring into play, enables us to address virtually any client challenge.
We’re proud to announce that members of our Built Environment team contributed to an award-winning project at the Bloor-Annex BIA Parkettes in Toronto.
The Toronto Urban Design Awards recognize projects that “contribute significantly to the quality and design excellence of [Toronto’s] built environment.”
We provided structural engineering services for the parkettes, which provide spaces for passive moments in the bustling Toronto neighborhood and won the Design Award of Excellence for the Small Open Spaces category.
Recalls can be the result of manufacturing defects, design issues, or unexpected and unintended user behaviors – for many manufacturers, issues due to user behavior can be particularly challenging.
Our Human Factors group can provide the expertise to analyze user behavior. We can help predict potential misuses before they happen or identify ways to address unexpected misuses when they are discovered in the field.
