Webinar on Fire Investigation

This presentation will cover the most important aspects and considerations to determining the events of a fire, from initial scene assessment, to burn patterns, fire development and establishing cause and origin at a fire scene.

Understanding the importance that the use of Matterport scans can have, they are an incredible tool for evidence gathering and for non-attendees understanding the scene. This is particularly useful for the substantiation of cases involving recovery and subrogation.

The session will be interactive with case studies and footage of scenes. We encourage questions and queries as they help everyone’s learning and understanding.

By the end of this webinar delegates will gain insights into:

1. Identify the 5 key stages to investigating a fire.

2. Understand, Point of Origin, Radius of error, burn patterns, indicators, Charring rates, arc mapping
