(OP)
I have a client that needs a design for a 15-20 foot deep excavation in VA, does VA require Structural Engineer design of Shoring or can a PE stamp the shoring design?

RE: Beam and Plate Shoring in VA
Re:fattdat - some states break out the distinction for certain items such as retaining walls,shoring,etc. For example in Illinois a retaining wall over 4-feet high requires Structural Engineer Stamp, my geotech engineer here in Illinois indicated that shoring in IL must also be desinged by a structural engineer.
RE: Beam and Plate Shoring in VA
Do you know or have you heard the justification in IL for requiring a SE seal on shoring designs? I ran across this a few years ago and just can't for the life of me understand how that came to be. Generally speaking, the shoring designs I have seen and been involved with are much more geotechnically critical than structurally critical.
Just curious.
