Welcome to the Website of James O’Kon PE

Jim O’Kon has gained an international reputation as an award winning structural engineer, innovative forensic investigator, expert witness, Author, lecturer, and Archaeo-engineer.

He has used his multiple talents, creativity, and expertise as a structural engineer and forensic investigator to develop new types of design in
Modern structures solve the cause of failures in distressed structures and uncover the lost technologies of ancient civilizations.

Mr. O'Kon has lead O'Kon & Company, Inc. for over thirty years in the design of unique structures and forensic engineering solutions. He continues to apply his structural engineering and forensic engineering talents for the creative structural design of complex projects in high risk environmental zones, the structural peer review of mega-projects and forensic investigation of the cause of non-performing construction projects.

He has earned numerous National design awards for innovative structural designs and has published scientific articles relating to creative design and error avoidance. He has delivered numerous scientific papers at international symposia relating to design innovation, error avoidance due to dependence on computer usage, forensic engineering methodology, and Archaeo-engineering.

Mr. O’Kon is an author with works published by scientific journals, textbooks by the American society of Civil engineers, and numerous international scientific institutes. His engineering breakthroughs and Archaeo-engineering discoveries are the subject of a History channel production.

We invite you to visit this site and review his multiple capabilities including structural engineering design, engineering peer reviews, his forensic engineering methodologies, value-engineering studies and his Archaeo engineering discoveries.
