What are some of your go-to sites for PDH's? I try to get most of mine through conferences, but still seem to have to take a few courses to meet the hour requirements.

I wanted to put this here instead of out in the regular forums because, frankly, the trust is greater here.  We are in discussions with a racetrack north of Detroit, and are talking about doing some full depth reclamation work for the aggregate base. The owners have had a relationship with a...

With kickoff less then three weeks away, figured it was time to talk about some college football. With the new conference line-ups, this may be an interesting year. RTR! Although replacing the entire defensive side of the ball will the the biggest challenge facing the Crimson Tide. That, and...

If anyone here deals with asphalt, can you tell me if your state employs a warranty specification. I would like to read some specifics on what states are requiring (what items are covered, bonding, etc) Thanks in advacne. ktulu

Thinking about getting a car GPS unit. Do not need a top-of-the-line unit, but a nice decent one. And one that I can input coordinates into. What does everyone else have?

I mainly deal with felxible pavement design, so this is new territory for me. We have a client that wants to do a rubbilization project with an AC overlay. We have been given some preliminary FWD data, but it was done on the existing PCC pavement, before rubbilization. Is there a way for me to...

I am wrapping up the WR depth questions in the OLD NCEES sample problems, and have become stuck on this question for awhile. I understand how they worked the problem, my only problem is why they have considered this as non-steady state conditions. The problem is this: The 85 feet thick confined...

Does anyone have the new NCEES exam with the combined WR/ENV topics they would like to sell? If so, I would be interested. Let me know. TIA. ktulu

Does anyone think they are eliminating a lot of information by only including geometric design as the lone AM topic? Not that I am complaining - it makes my transpo notebook really thin. No traffic analysis, etc. for me. Just wanted to get your thoughts/opinions. ktulu

I am working through a problem where I need to find the equivalent length of concrete pipe. The CERM only gives equivalent length values for steel and cast iron. Where would I find a quick list of equivalent lengths for generic fittings for materials other than steel and cast iron? TIA. ktulu...

For those that utilized the 6-minute solutions for WR/ENV depth, how adequate do you think they prepared you for the PM session for the exam? Did you feel like you were comfortable with the exam questions after working these 80 problems? I am about to tackle these problems in the next week, and...

I am working on a mutiple reservoir problem where the flow rate is not given. In the CERM, using Case #1, they state that a flow rate can be assumed so the pressure at a point can be determined. Then you validate the assumption, making changes if the numbers do not work out cleanly. I know this...

So the Montgomery, AL class has been cancelled due to lack of enrollment, as was the Birmingham, AL class. This leaves me with driving to Atlanta, which is not but an hour and a half, but it's the damn hotel bills I am about to rack up that has me pissed. So, anybody in Atlanta have a room they...

Hope these are helping. I know they are forcing me to do a good bit of reading. Answers tomorrow.

Answers will be posted tomorrow.

I know I said that I would post a 'question of the day' starting last week...call me a slacker. However, today will be the first in hopefully a consistent streak of good practice problems. I have the answers, and have not worked this one out yet, so I will let you work it out, then I will post...

Hey everyone, With October fast approaching, let's get a roll call as to who is prepping for the Fall exam, and for what depth. That way, we can bounce questions back and forth with other people that are studying, while also getting input from those who have already passed. Another thing that...
