Technical Specifications

While the majority of engineering work is based on logically proven laws and mathematically expressed equations, being able to translate the equation and all of its intent into a technically sound and grammatically correct sentence is not as easy as understanding the formula. Specification writing draws on many diverse topics, e.g., project management, engineering practice, law, civics, grammar, word usage, and even philosophy.
