Hello, I posted this question at eng-tips but haven't gotten any feedback so I thought I'd try here as well. Thanks in advance for any help. I have done a few years worth of work with wood design but haven't seen this before. I am doing an inspection of an existing glulam roof truss to verify...

Hello Fellow EB'ers, I designed and uploaded two seismic design spreadsheets that I used to pass the test. The first spreadsheet solves for the Equivalent Lateral Force Procedure (§12.8.1 in the ASCE 7-05). This procedure is used to solve for Buildings (Chapter 12) and Non-Building Structures...

I've been looking up some free places to get some PDH and came across this gem (so far they're putting out about 1/wk): http://www.woodworks.org/educationTraining...r-upcoming.aspx They're live so obviously you need to be available for an hour on Thursdays but so far I've been able to work it...

Hi all, I feel that we as engineers should probably have some similar tastes in what we like to read. I figured this could be a good outlet to compile some good books to throw open when we're not working our bums off. I've tried my best to categorize what i read so that everyone can use the...

I've been in charge of my company's website for awhile, and decided to have some fun with it for the holidays. Let me know what you guys think :party-smiley-048: http://www.hopperengineering.com/XmasSpecialspotlight.php As you'll be able to tell, i'm not leaving my job for my poetry skills...

Hi All, It's been awhile since i've spelunked down to these depths ;) I've been working on building an engineering wiki to help people with the test (and general engineering, but the PE is the initial area that i'm focusing my efforts on). I was wondering if you fellow engineers could review...

This is mainly a rant :D ---------------------- Ok, I've got an axe to grind with Nevada... First they don't accept my NCEES Record, that i spent months putting together. And now they want four more references... Because the four I had to do for my own state test, and the 5 for the NCEES...

I'm taking the CE structural (tomorrow), and i'm feeling pretty good about things, except, when one of those Aashto questions comes up... Does anyone have any reference online that sums up a couple of Aashto principles or should I just leave it be. The last two people who took the test in my...

Hi all, I just found the board a couple of days ago and decided to join seeing that it seems to be a very helpful place for up-and-coming engineers. I have a couple of questions that I've read over the forums for but figured i'd just get everything off my chest... I'm taking the PE in CA in...
