My Goal

Welcome to  A Field Perspective on Engineering's commissioning resource website.  For those who don't know me from my blog or some other venue, I am a senior engineer for a company named Facility Dynamics Engineering a.k.a FDE, which specializes in commissioning, control system design, and some forensic engineering work.

​I created this website as a way to supplement my
 Field Perspective on Engineering blog. The idea was to leverage the organization and navigation features of a website in a way that would allow me to try out some ideas I have had floating around in the back of my head like the "What's That Thing?" page.   Hopefully the information is useful to others. 

Feel free to get in touch via the 
Contact tab if you see something you have a question about, see something you think is wrong, or have an idea you want to share.
