Webinars
What are the benefits of using a laboratory to systematically and methodically examine recovered evidence of an incident to answer important questions in the course of an incident investigation, forensic investigation, root cause analysis and failure analysis? Join BakerRisk Materials Engineering Lab Supervisor/Senior Engineer Dr. Sean Berg, Ph.D., P.E., CFEI as he discusses these and many more considerations for incident investigations in his Webinar, “What to know about Laboratory Analytical and Testing Methods – Expert Insights and Other Considerations for Forensic Investigations and Failure Analysis”.
This webinar will highlight how laboratory examination and analytical techniques can answer important questions during forensic investigations, failure analysis, and root cause analysis efforts. Using the BakerRisk Materials Lab as an example, this webinar will provide an overview of protocols, equipment, and different investigative techniques.
Dr. Berg will demonstrate the significance of laboratory examination in the investigation of incidents at industrial facilities, including rotating and fixed equipment, several cases studies will be presented. This webinar will address incidents including fixed and rotating equipment, pressure vessels, piping, and tanks.
Key highlights covered in this webinar:
Dr. Berg works in our San Antonio office as part of the Investigation and Materials Group. He has a background in both mechanical engineering and metallurgical and materials engineering, and is a registered professional engineer practicing in both disciplines. Additionally, Dr. Berg is:

Major updates to our patented Hazardous Area Classification (HAC) software are arriving soon. BakerRisk's HACTool© will now incorporate new updates aligned with the latest revisions of NFPA 497, NFPA 499, IEC 60079-10-1, and IEC 60079-10-2 standards.
Join BakerRisk’s Theresa Lewis, Michael Metcalfe-Smith, and Alexandre Cardoso, P. Eng., during which our experts will discuss why process safety management (PSM) is a critical component of safe growth in renewable fuel industries—even when not required—and how to effectively implement key PSM elements to support resilient, sustainable operations.
The webinar will highlight the release of our new best practice, “F&G Detector Mapping,” during which our experts will discuss the importance of incorporating fire & gas detection systems capable of detecting gas leaks, fires, and related hazards to reduce and mitigate risks at operating facilities.
Join BakerRisk consultants Roger Stokes and Rob Magraw as they deliver an introduction to incident investigations.
In this presentation, BakerRisk’s Travis Holland, P.E., M.S., and Brian Royo will deliver insights into Multi-Hazard Resistant Building (MRB) Design, key concepts of protective building design, and the dynamic response of different building materials to hazards common in processing facilities.
