To Whom it May Concern,
Abhinav Agrawal was a student employee in the Physical Facilities group at Purdue University
from May 2014 to May 2015 where he worked in the Engineering Department. During his term
Abhi had the opportunity to interact with many different campus groups including Building
Deputies, Zone Leaders, Engineers, Fire & Safety, and Operations/Maintenance personnel.
One of the projects Abhi was tasked with was a comprehensive safety related project to
inventory the fall protection equipment and devices that have been installed on the campus
buildings. This project required scheduling with building operations personnel, traversing as
many roof tops as possible to photo document the fall protection devices, assembling the
equipment specifications and organizing the data in a useable format for easy access by the
University’s Safety group. The final report was completed on schedule, well presented and has
provided valuable information for the University.
Abhi took the initiative and did a great job of scheduling, meeting university personnel and
documenting his activities throughout the year. Abhi is very well spoken, thorough and willing to
take on a challenge. I am confident that he will serve well as he continues his career in the
engineering and construction community.
Sincerely,
Dave Frash, P.E., S.E.
Senior Structural Engineer
