    For those who passed (congrats)

    You can call NCEES or your state board and they will tell you the percentage of the multiple choice questions that are bridge problems.

    For those who passed (congrats)

    I had 4 years experience when I started studying for the exam. I studied text books very heavily and also dissected every example problem I could find. I found that I did get a bit distracted when I would over think problems so during the exam I tried to catch myself if I started to read too...

    16 Hour SE Results

    This is state dependent. In Texas, for example, SE is not a recognized credential and therefore shouldn't be used. I would check with your state board.

    $240 for AASHTO PE Exam Edition

    I spoke with NCEES before ordering the monster code. The person I spoke to did mention that the next round of exams (I think starting in October 2011) will be using a newer version of AASHTO. For me, this means that not passing is not an option. :) I certainly will not spend another $240...

    NCEES Sample Exam

    Another thing that appears to be missing from the solution is the consideration of accidental eccentricity. (0.1 x the wall dimension) I understand that this is in the Column section of the masonry code, but wouldn't it also be applicable to a wall element with axial load?

    NCEES Sample Exam

    For combined stresses, MSJC requires that fa (axial compression stress) + fb (flexural compression stress) be less than or equal to Fb= 1/3 f'm. It also requires that fa be less than Fa. What equations for k are you referring to?

    NCEES Practice Exam 112 (lateral)

    I think the problem is over simplified to illustrate the "direction of loading provisions" in ASCE 7 12.5.4. I saw this as a code provision question rather than a structural analysis question. It doesn't make the solution correct, but that was my interpretation. It would be nice if there were...
