Applied Engineering Services was founded in 1998 by three individuals — Frank St. John, LEED AP, P.E., Terry DeBoo, and John Yoder, LEED AP.  In the fall of 2005, Ralph Power, P.E., and Rex Stockwell, P.E., LEED AP, became principals of the firm.  The five principals work in the role of managing projects, developing and maintaining client relationships, and managing office responsibilities.  The principals each have a proven background leading projects from conceptual planning, through project design, and construction.

Applied currently employs 41 individuals, of which 24 are degreed engineers and of which 13 are professionally registered in the State of Indiana.  Eleven of our staff members are currently LEED accredited as well.  Applied’s personnel have been involved with a wide variety of mechanical and electrical systems over the years.  As such, we have developed an expertise in evaluating project requirements, reviewing technology that may be applicable, and efficiently designing the optimum system for the client.  In many cases, we have been able to save significant capital or operating costs for the client through the use of innovative system design.

Applied utilizes computer-aided engineering to facilitate and optimize many of the design aspects involved with mechanical and electrical systems.  We make significant use of computer modeling programs to assist with the optimization of fan, pump, duct, and pipe sizing.  We have developed our own spreadsheets to prepare estimated plant operating cost and life cycle cost analyses.  We utilize software to perform finite element pipe stress analysis in the event that high pressure, high temperature fluids or gases are involved in the project design.  We also utilize sophisticated electrical engineering software modeling programs to prepare coordination, short circuit, and arc flash analyses.
