Hey there! 👋
I'm really excited to finally write this first post here on EngToolsLab.com. This website is something I've been wanting to create for a while — a place where I could share some of the small, simple tools that I've been building to help me out in my day-to-day work as a coastal and civil engineer.
Why I Created This
Like many of you, I often find myself needing to do quick calculations — sometimes it's figuring out the best way to cut pipe segments with minimal waste, other times it's estimating forces on piles, or designing fender systems. I developed a solid Python library (initially built when I was at university) to solve these problems, and I thought: why not create a small platform where I can put all these calculators in one place and share them?
That's how EngToolsLab was born.
What You'll Find Here
Right now, the tools available are still few, but I plan to keep adding more as I have time and encounter day-to-day problems. Most of them are based on real situations I've faced at work or common calculations we often need in this field.
Some examples already live:
- A pipe segment calculator for cutting optimization
- A tool to calculate wave forces on piles
They're not fancy, but they're useful — and that's the whole point.
Let's Build This Together
I don't want this to be just my personal toolbox — I'd really love to turn EngToolsLab into a small community-driven platform. So if you have an idea for a tool, want to contribute one, or even write a post sharing a tip, experience, or resource that might help others, you're more than welcome.
The goal is just to make our lives as engineers a bit easier and share some knowledge along the way.
Thanks for Visiting
Thanks for stopping by and checking out the site. I'll be updating things little by little, so feel free to come back once in a while to see what's new.
If you have feedback, tool ideas, or just want to say hi, don't hesitate to reach out.
See you around!
