CA-ENGINEERING SURVEYING EXAM

This is a good place to discuss CA special exams for Civil PE. However, I guess we don't get many visitors here though.

Here's a useful link, to the CalTrans Survey manual -- lots of good information in construction staking in chapter 12, photogrammetry on Ch 13, and Engineering surveys in Ch 11:

I feel like Caltrans must be pretty involved in writing some of the questions in the Cal surveying exam...

I think the president of the California Board of PE is an ex Caltrans guy. State engineers make up a lot of PEs in the state because it is required for advancement. I bet CALTRANS is the largest single employer of civil and transpo PEs in the state.
