PRACTICAL ENGINEERING QUEENSLANDPractical engineering allows a design to be placed in the context of an industry –rather than designing a product in a vacuum to mathematical specifications,practical knowledge of the industry and its components can allow for a morepractical design and integration. Industry connections allow a project to beassimilated more quickly, and conversely, practical knowledge of the industry canstart a practical engineering project several steps ahead of a theoretical project.FCE is a professional engineering consultancy that deliversinnovative and efficient solutions to its clients. IFCE workslocally, nationally and internationally across a number ofindustry sectors, for companies large and small.
