He also routinely examines stairways, elevated surfaces, and doorways to determine compliance with the applicable versions of the Alberta and National Building Codes.
As part of his work in both collision reconstruction and premises liability cases, Mr. Townsley regularly analyzes video footage to determine vehicle speed and positioning, incident timing, human actions, and the 3D locations of objects visible in 2D frames.
