MEET OUR EXPERTS

DAVID BROWN 

Reuse of Structural Steel

David was one of the authors of SCI publication P427, presenting a protocol for the reuse of steel sections used in construction. More recently, David wrote SCI publication P440, extending the guidance to steel originally used in construction since 1930.

ASHFAQ KHOKHAR

Determination of Mechanical Properties and Weldability

Ashfaq is a Metallurgist and Chartered Engineer with experience in heat treatment, optical microscopy, mechanical testing and failure investigations. Experience on failure investigations include parent metal (ferrous and non-ferrous) and weld failure from the marine, oil and gas, chemical, automotive, power generation and construction industries. Ashfaq joined Sandberg LLP in April 2021 after leaving TWI Ltd, where he was a project leader in the Materials department. Ashfaq has gained a wide experience in metallurgy, having worked on arc, friction, laser, electron beam welding projects and failure investigations.
