    NY State application

    I did the same as NY Computer Engineer,  I named the project, wrote a short paragraph describing the project, then said "the specific duties I performed were:" and listed bullet points of everything I did on each project. Since I have worked more in structural renovations, restoration, and steel...

    NYS transfer from CT is taking forever

    Idk New York is very slow for everything. It took them over 8 weeks after passing the PE for them to issue licenses. I've recently  applied to form a PLLC  (Professional Service Limited Liability Company) and they said the same, 12-16 weeks for approval because they have a backlog

Also i recently filed to form a PLLC (professional sevices limited liability company) and called the department of education after I sent out the forms, they said to...

    NY State application

    I had my supervisor who wasn't a PE sign for my last 3 years experience. The board did email me and ask why I didn't have a PE as my endorser, and I responded that because he was my direct supervisor which is what they had asked for, I gave them all the certifications and experience he did have...

    crane reference

    What kind of problems are you looking for, I don't know of any crane books that have problems outright to solve, but if I remember right Shapiro's book has examples that they walk through.

    AASHTO and PCI

    I had 1 AASHTO question and 1 PCI question, neither were from parts that I had learned in EET or had expected to have a question on, they were just lookup questions, if you were somewhat familiar with the codes and indexes you had a shot at finding them ( I managed to). So I don't think you can...

    Table set up at exam

    I can agree with every part of this, it was about a 12 minute walk round trip to go to the bathroom (just to walk there and back), you had to go out the gym, down the hall, downstairs,  across to the opposite end of the building, and around a corner. I got dropped off for the exam and we got...

    FE & PE licensing requirement for a Canadian person

    I'm sure someone else will be able to better answer you in full but I'd expect you will have to take both the FE and PE, engineers to get their degrees in an ABET accredited school and have their experience in the US also have to take both the FE and PE exam in order to get their license (even...

    Books needed for PE civil Structural depth

    I did the live webinars so if you keep to your schedule it's a good pace. I did all of the breadth problems during the course after one class before the next, the depth I did most of the practice problems as they were doing the course but couldn't find the time to get them all in. After all the...

    Can you have a PE other than your supervisor verify your work experience?

    This is true for New York, my direct supervisor for the last couple years wasn't a PE, although I worked regularly with PE's who also reviewed my work. I had my supervisor sign the form and I checked the box that he was not a PE, I got an email from the state board why I didn't have my...

    Books needed for PE civil Structural depth

    I found the goswami practice problems more similar to the actual test than anything from PPI, I also would say don't waste you time with six minute solutions, their problems are way too in depth and too many steps as compared to the exam. Yes it does test the skills you will need on the exam...
