Bridge Questions on SE Exam
Bridge Questions on SE Exam
(OP)
It STILL baffles me why they have not introduced two exam choices for the morning session.... My profession is building structures, I can only think how the bridge engineers view the LARGE percentage of building questions in the morning session....
The only time I open the AASHTO is to study for the exam. I think the IBC code would be the same for bridge engineers.
Another way to look at it -- are they truly testing the capabilities of the bridge engineers' skill sets for designing with bridge codes?
This time around I will not be studying any bridge content. I will concentrate my efforts on building design.

So yes, it is annoying for bridge/building engineers to have to study material outside their field. But just buckle down and show that you can dig into the code a little and figure out a problem, even if you have never seen it before. I mean AASHTO is only what, 1600 pages or so? Should be no problem at all to find in your 2 minutes allotted...

You changed my stance on multiple SE exams RWW. Way to go!

I just need to passed the darn thing before the following happens:
1) they update the code references again
2) they equalize the amount of bridge questions on the morning exam. (maybe I should not have said that out loud....)
If I cannot find them, I will be creating my own flowcharts to help with the gravity test in the fall.
