It is agreed! That we shall!
Civil are just drop out EECivil.
I know, I know... you wouldn't expect that, wouldja?

I'm an engineer, she can hug me anyday.
Additional licences are a pain, Washington doesn't require continuing education. If you don't have to deal with continuing education with Idaho or Oregon, it's not worth it.It is agreed! That we shall!
You've got me outclassed a fair bit, there. I was headed for a structural specialty while in university, but I never took the SE, so a lowly PE I remain...
Adding to my further shame, I have never bothered to pursue comity in my adjacent states. It just never was a necessity.
And now, in the fading twilight of my career, it looks like it never will...
What, you don't like running parallel #750's? If it works, it doesn't have enough "features".
Just looked at mine and yes it has my Idaho DL number on it.
Actually, they don't suck it out. But they don't emphasize it either. IMHO the best engineers are the ones who get the contractors involved early, so you can take into account their practices and limitations. I remember early on when I was checking a computer generated calculation for a simple retaining wall. The agency I was working for had a policy that we could demand that anyone submitting computer generated calculations provide proof that were familiar with the software and how it worked. I told the engineer that he had to provide hand calculations. When he asked why, I said that he had not demonstrated that he was familiar with the software he was using. He said, what did I mean? That is when I explained that the wall was upside down! But common sense is even more lacking in politicians and it's lacking in a good share of the population, so lets not be picking on engineers.
no; I love parallel 750's through 12- 90's and 4 pull boxes up seven floors!
In all fairness I worked with some awesome engineers and some crappy electricians as well. My experience is people who are good at their profession don't fear being wrong occasionally it's called learning.
Yes, I understand. Our posts are just light hearted fun with other gun people on this forum.
My personal favorite was a school IT and remodel with a brand-new EE and a brand-new architect, first job out of college for them both.
You mean the crap that @solv3nt engineers. He's the sparky, not me. I design and build cool sh*t., not stuff that'll fry you if you touch it.
That's the nicest looking dirt pile I've ever seen
No SOBO even guys who spend gobs of money learning dirt stacking techniques screw us.
As an engineer, I believe magnet fishing is fishing for magnets.
