Congrats man! Your story brings hope to all the FAIL scorned test takers!

I failed. No negative consequences...Well other than being scared with the Stigma of seeing FAILED on my status. That word bothers me LOL. I still feels pretty good i guess. LOL admittedly it would feel better to have passed. All you folks that dedicated so much time to passing congratulations...

There is no point. I'd be willing to bet this group of test takers were exceptionally prepared and as a result performed well making the cut score fairly steep. Just speculating and bored at home on a Friday night. Well that and the group of people just all looked so smart when I went to take...

I'd like to know, out of simple curiosity. I got 48/80 Civil - Structural Depth. I was very surprised I did that well. The company that sponsored me, subsequently fired me 6 months before the test. As soon as I found a new job that had nothing to do with Civil Engineering I gave up on...

FAIL = 48/80 Civil (Structural Depth) Surprising I did really well in topics I'm not competent in and poorly on stuff I thought I knew? I guess I'm a good guesser and I tend to over complicate problems. OH well...I'm never going to try this again and the License would serve me no purpose at...

Wow all the speculation and conspiracy theories are pretty funny. @ Creber the motivational poster with Smegol it So funny. Had me laughing at work.

That's funny! 103 users are reading this topic! Guess were all a little anxious to get some results. Good or Bad. I didn't study at all so I know I did not pass but I'm still interested in the breakdown of the report.

Excellent Answers. Yes I see what you did there..Ha Ha very funny.

Thanks guys for taking the time to respond to my question. I simply botched the moment expression and forgot to divide by 2 when multiplying the resultant load times the lever arm. Somehow in my reading I missed that virtual work takes into account the members rotation too (good to know...

CERM CH.50 INTRODUCTION "Many of the code equations are not homogeneous - the units of the results cannot be derived from those of the inputs." I don't know why but this bothers me and makes me cringe. How did the code end up this way?

Well I didn't see copy and paste doing this to me.

CERM (11th ed.) Ex. Prob. 47.3 I think the expression for the moment mp [bar AB] is incorrect and should be (0.04wL2). Can anyone else confirm this? Also I'm not sure I agree with the overall solution. Wouldn't a more accurate approach be to calculate the slope or rotation at the end of the...

Thanks for sharing! The engineering videos site is exactly what I needed to help supplement the CERM chapters.

Thanks Ptatohed I think I will be living in this area of the forum from here on out. Plenty of interaction going on for my liking.

Thanks for the pointer Ptatohed :poking:
