    Switching from working on public works projects to civil oil and gas projects

    There are a lot of engineering jobs in my neck of the woods for natural gas/shale fracking. Everything from FDR (full depth reclaimation) road design, E&S permitting, Well Permitting, hydro-geology, LD for well pad sites, etc. You don't necessarily need to have mining engineering experience...

    VE vs Common Sense

    Dex, I respect your opinion on this but in all honesty I strive very hard to make sure that I have the most economical solution for my clients needs ... factoring in short term cost and long term maintenance/repair cost. The CMs typically only look at the short term construction cost...

    Equalivalent is the key word. In this case the cm option is not.

    VE vs Common Sense

    April 2012 CA-Survey Exam cancelled statewide?

    Has anyone contacted their state representative or state senator? In PA, if you have an issue with the board or need someone to intervene on your behalf the best way is through your district's state senator.

    India > North Korea

    Having the weapon/rocket and the balls to use it are two very different things. I dont think anyone, beyond Pakistan, is up at night worrying about the Indian Military. Is this a military advancement ...yes, but mostly a bargaining chip for political advancement.

    India > North Korea

    I dont really understand why India needs a 3 stage rocket unless they are using it to get on the UN security counsel. I think everyone has resigned to the fact that at some point India and Pakistan are going to duke it out with a winner take all kind of finish.

    Architectural Engineer need help with pump question

    My first thought would be Hazen-WIlliams or Darcy Weisbach.. Let me take a look at this. Darcy is H = F*(L/D)*(V^2/(2g)) I think it is safe to assume since they said the second pump is a replacement that vertical component of the total head is irrelevant. I would assume this is a friction...

    Exam Day

    Yes. typically people brought in wheeled luggage or a dolly for their books. They had to place them in the front of the room after they unloaded their books. MY exam was a few years ago in PA. Things may have changed. It sounds as if you are probably taking too many books though. Just remember...
