I spoke with someone at the board. She mentioned that my application was under review. I will email her again in a few weeks.

I'll buy all three! Do you still have them.... I especially want the Heiner book...

So there is no one else having this problem?

All that you listed above is disqualified here (maybe because CA has a separate TE exam).

What you mention above is considered planning which in CA would not count as experience according to the board.

I posted the specs above. Everything my manager wrote has to do with design (traffic/tranportation/ITS). The specs above make it extremely difficult. Analyses and calculations typically relate to planning and they don't like that.

Basically, if you have the TE you still cannot stamp anything. It's ironic that you need a PE Civil license to stamp traffic plans and yet they don't qualify traffic (in CA) as experience.

These people you know took the test in the CIVIL PE in CA? I know I qualify for the TE with no problems. I just need help in wording the application on the CIVIL PE (I know many people have taken it and have gotten approved)

I work for a traffic firm but we also do Civil Engineering which I am not involved in. Typically a traffic consulting firm does Traffic Engineering Traffic Signal Engineering and System Synchronization Traffic Impact Study and Parking Study Traffic Calming and Pedestrian Safety Study...

My manager talked to one of the expert people the board has. She was telling him not to use the word traffic in anywhere. She was telling him that signing and stripping, traffic control plans, and other traffic/transportation related descriptions don't count.

I work in Diamond Bar, CA. I've been trying to word my application as vaguely as possible (not lying but its called misrepresenting the truth)

I am planning to take the PE CIVIL exam in October 2011. The problem. My supervisor (who has over 20 years experience in traffic design and planning) recently applied and got denied. The board disqualified all his experience because they don't consider traffic related work to be Civil work...

Hi, I am applying for the PE CIVIL CA October 2011 and I am facing similar problems. Can someone share or layout a sample?
