    Things I hate more than Project Wise

    Waiting 15 seconds just for ArcMap just to open a dialog window Waiting 15 seconds for ArcMap to open a second sub-dialog Waiting 30 seconds for ArcMap to open a processing tool I'd take track changes over Project Wise any day though

    Trajectory method to calculate discharge of tube well and pipe outlet

    Do you have equations in English units and do they work with embalming fluid?

    Mortgage Providers

    So the property is along a tributary of what appears to be a major watercourse - it is helpful that the base elevations have been established along the latter through detailed study is beneficial, though how helpful... it really depends on what tools an engineer in your area has to work with...

    Mortgage Providers

    The flood zone issue is a bit more involved. A "Zone A" designation indicates that it is the likely extent of the 1% annual chance (fka 100-year) flood, but FEMA has not established a flood elevation, at least one accurate enough to hang their hats on.  In contrast, areas where FEMA has...

    Groundwater problem #7 wrecrossfit

    Decent problem. I was able to infer as much based on the data givens, though my only suggestion would be to change the question to read "48 hours after the start of pumping operations" or something along this line.

    New CERM vs old

    This is just MHO, but I don't see it being worth the hassle, unless perhaps there have been certain recent code changes in the depth section you'll be taking. I took and passed the PE using the 12th ed. when the 13th was current and it served me well in both am and pm (WR/Env).  Regardless of...

    New method of power generation landmark use of fusion

    Buy 4 boxes of lemon square mix, bake, and then try to making the cuts as you describe.  Once you have the technique down gradually increase the number of boxes to 4,000.  Any geotechnical engineer will tell you that for the first couple of miles or so the earth beneath us is completely...

    Critical Depth vs Normal Depth?

    That's the answer I got too ;) It's a tricky problem in that all the givens point to solving for normal depth using Manning - enough red herring to make a fine stew.  At least they weren't so cruel as to include the normal depth solution in the answer choices.

    Water Resources Study Module

    I tried to access it back when I was studying for the exam back in 2012 (creating a pbworks account, etc.) and got nowhere, so I'm inclined to write it off as being dead. If this is indeed the case the topic should probably be unpinned & binned. Also, the WR&E exam specs have recently...

    LEED Green Associate, bring it on!

    Just signed up to take the GA (sorry, Green Associate™) exam in April at the behest of my employer, who's also footing the bill. Working primarily in civil/environmental/transportation we have very little use for LEED, though apparently there's some work on the horizon for which we need at...

    Culverts- AM

    Culverts by their nature can be quite tricky to analyze, model, & design... there are an array of variables to consider (headwater and tailwater conditions, inlet and outlet configurations/losses, friction loss through the pipe itself, etc.), and depending on these the culvert may behave...

    Tennessee Professional Privilege Tax baby for PE...

    What a crock of BS. Coming soon, the sunshine & fresh air taxes. Good to see state gov't making real strides in things like determining what officially constitutes tennessee whiskey.
