Your Definition
The practice of designing and building solutions for specific, often temporary situations—engineering without the luxury of planning, testing, or mass production. Ad hoc engineering is what happens in emergencies, in [remote] locations, in startup offices, in any situation where you need [something] to work now and can't wait for proper engineering. It's the art of the temporary fix, the makeshift solution, the structure that only needs to stand for a while. Ad hoc engineering is despised by professional engineers (who value reliability) and beloved by everyone else (who value results). It's engineering for the real [world], where most problems are [unique] and most solutions are temporary.
