My cubicle walls were like 18" high. LOL. I had no choice but to prop against the walls. I've since moved into an office and will have it hung up properly. :)
I was a two time test taker as well. I reviewed my weak areas and worked those types of problems the most, but I also kept my strong areas fresh. For me, working on timing and organization of the references was key. To be honest, I never felt like I was solid and totally prepared. I felt kind of...
Just picked mine up from Hobby Lobby. $130. I think it came out really nice. There's a more expensive glass option that doesn't glare like this, but I'm happy with this one.
Good day, everyone.
I'm checking to see if there are any mechanical P.E.'s out there that have ever been mentored/trained on a part-time basis to learn a new engineering skill set. I'm particularly interested in learning and gaining working knowledge in MEP engineering, but I'd want to do it...
Long read below.
I agree with what was said above. For me, I'd been out of school for 8 years. I have a spouse and two children as well. I took the Testmasters course in Houston (Mechanical Thermal Fluids). It was definitely worth it because it gave me direction and path to study. It is...
Vessel is 12 yrs old. The records I can find on the vessel do not indicate any type of heat treating performed at time of fabrication. I also found that it was previously in H2S gas service prior to now (we rent compressor packages that service different applications). Is there an industry...
Does anyone have experience in heat treating of carbon steel pressure vessels? I've run into a situation where we've found high hardness on an old vessel (266 BHN) going into an H2S application (up to 10,000 ppm). Our standards specify an upper limit of 235 BHN on process piping and vessels. I...
That's what I'm saying. I'd register for the exam regardless of if you got the "approval" notice from LAPELS. If the exam is decoupled from experience, then you don't need LAPELS approval for the exam. It's run through NCEES.
May want to check me on this, but I believe Louisiana decoupled the exam from the experience requirement a few years back. When I was living there, I worked with new grads who had taken the PE exam but were waiting on their experience to complete the licensing process. Texas also has done this...
Yeah. I printed it from the email as well. Got everything ordered. Just waiting for it to come in to complete the form. Thanks. Still feels weird this process is coming to an end. It's only been a year in the making for me! Haha. Feel like I should be gearing up to study again for April.
