I know this thread has been revived a few times, but does anyone have any opinions on the best color for a PE seal? Pros and cons to different colors?

Hope OP figured this out before now since the question was originally posted 14 years ago...

Your best bet would probably be to reach out directly to the PA licensing board to see how they would handle your situation. If they do need you to fill out previous experience, would it really be necessary to go all the way back to 2012 to have something signed? What exactly is required as far...

If you are unsure how the board will view your experience, you should probably ask the board directly. Most of them are pretty nice. Requirements vary by state, so your best bet is likely to ask the people in your state that are going to make that decision. Plus you didn't really lay out what...

What is a G.E.?

My advice would be to contact a local structural engineer that could come out on site and evaluate the structure around this opening to determine the best course of action. With just the information you have provided, there are still a lot of unknowns (structurally).

There was a big drop with the change to CBT. Another big factor is that a few months ago there was a change in ownership (most of the posts about that have been scrubbed) and a lot of the senior members were booted. That has really drawn down on the regular posters here.

Thanks for posting this. It's really interesting to hear. I agree with you that not having hard copy references will be difficult, or at least take some getting used to. I passed the civil PE on the last P&P administration, and I'm so glad I didn't have to make the transition to CBT for that. I...

There are 6 structural guys in my office, one has a PE, the other two have SEs (three of us are EITs). We do a good chunk of residential work, but one of our main clients is a contractor that builds 90% of the charter schools in our state. Our office does the architectural and engineering work...

Based on my understanding, you would need to pass the CA seismic and survey exams, and become a licensed PE in CA. Then, after a certain number of time practicing as a licensed PE in California (three years?) you can apply for your SE license in California.

@RBHeadge PE Leaving us on a cliff hanger for 6 months.

Do you receive a diagnostic after failing the FE? If so, are the results similar for each attempt, or are you lower in different areas each time?

From how high can you drop an egg onto a concrete floor without breaking it? Higher than you would think, the structural integrity of a well laid concrete floor renders it virtually indestructible towards an incoming egg, even at terminal velocity.

Before studying engineering, if someone asked me what 1+1 is, I would have said 2. Now, I'd say I'm pretty sure it's 2, but we'd better make it 3 just to be safe.

I think the only "guaranteed" passing score is 80/80.

I'm not sure that you're missing much. Once they issue a permit, take down the unsafe stairs/catwalk. In the meantime, signs/caution tape probably wouldn't hurt.

Based on @CCstruct 's other post, they are working on their masters degree. In my state, as well as others the requirements for taking the PE exam are to pass the FE and have completed your bachelors degree. I assume it is a similar situation.
