    Pay Raise?

    now that my company is headed back into the black i was able to talk with my boss yesterday. i'm getting a 5% pay raise for getting my PE license and i'm happy with that. i could probably make a bit more money elsewhere but my work environment is awesome, benefits are great, and there's room...

    PE Structural Depth "Cheat Sheet"?

    i didn't create a cheat sheet but i did a few things that were really helpful and sort of acted as quasi-cheat-sheets: 1) i strategically tabbed the CERM and Steel Construction Manual. i flagged sections i thought would come in handy on the test for example "ACI Load Combinations" in the CERM...
