A building's structural integrity has been compromised. They want to know if it needs to be torn down or if parts of it can be salvaged. The answer matters. You can be a part of figuring it out.

Sintra Engineering is a forensic engineering firm serving insurance and legal clients in Alberta with offices in Edmonton and Calgary. We aren't your typical engineering firm and forensic engineering isn't your typical engineering practice. How does a typical work day of investigating buildings, analyzing evidence, and trying to figure out exactly what happened sound to you?
