Marcor Platt

Forensic & Expert Witness
Excellence through Integrity

I provide structural and civil forensic engineering services and expert testimony. I am also a structural design engineer engaged in all types of structures (industrial, residential, commercial, landscape, etc.) and all common materials plus specialty materials (wood, steel, concrete, masonry, carbon fiber). I have conducted over 550 forensic investigations involving roof failures, wall failures, foundation damage, corrosion, or other forms of damage resulting from rain, hail, wind, snow, tornado, lightning, fire, volcano, tropical storm, vehicle impact, or other natural or man-made events.

I have testified at depositions and trials regarding project cost estimates and underground engineering feasibility, structural adequacy to resist wind forces, truss repair versus replacement, water intrusion due to wind, and other topics. I am a licensed civil and/or structural engineer in 21 states – namely Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana, Nevada, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, and Washington.
