    You mentioned that the Mansour book didn't have all the definitions noted in it. Is there another book that could supplement the definitions piece of the puzzle? I have lots of engineering experience in structural, took a survey class in college, but haven't touched a traverse or "stick" since 1999. LOL!

    5:08 Definitely keep a look out for Taylor's method of slope stability. I had no idea about that on a practice test and did a seat of pants method (yet got the problem right). Still, it would be way easier to have used the table for getting the maximum height for a stable slope without failure.

    Thank you so much for the content and your advice. I passed my PE Civil Exam at the first first attempt in the OCT 2020 exam but was surprised when I got to know I still need to pass (2) more exams for getting the PE license in CA. How much time in weeks or months do you think an average engineer needs to pass these (2) exams?

    I recently took my PE Civil Structural Exam, basically no experience with structural codes other than college, only got to study about 8 hours total, and this was the main video I used to guide my study time. Passed it first try. Thank you so much for this video, it helped me a lot, perfect guide for the breadth section.

    • @amidaa928

    • @bradythyfault3097
      @bradythyfault3097 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@amidaa928 the breadth section is pretty much word for word from the PE reference manual. During the breadth portion of the exam my head was in the reference manual the whole time. I wouldn’t say I knew all the topics, but I knew where to find them in the manual, which is key, and that is the test taking strategy I feel is best to structure your studying around. Along these same lines, being able to identify key words for use in conjunction with the reference manual index is a skill that will make the breadth section a breeze. It’s a breadth section, you should have a breadth of knowledge on everything. If you try to get too in depth with any few topics, you are wasting space in your brain and time you have to study essentially. It’s better to have a smaller wrinkly brain than a massive smooth brain. AKA study smarter not harder.

    Thanks my friend for the video. I am taking PE geotech in APril 2020 and I am having hard time with Structure morning exam. I took a course and they didnot really go into detail in course.I tried 6 minute book and CERM practice questions and they seem a lot harder for me. Were the questions in Structure Morning portions too much concept based /lengthy or were they toward simple formula/calculation or chart based with few steps computation. Please guide me , thanks.

    Hey thanks for your videos, they are very helpful. I just passed the FE exam and am starting to prepare for the PE Civil Structural exam. As you recommended I purchased the CERM, NCEES Practice Exam, and the 6 min Structural Problems. The issue I'm having now is the huge list of references that are required. I am a fellow Canadian and am wondering how I can avoid spending $$$ on all the references. Can you help a brother out?? Do if for the Raptors!!! :):) Thanks man.

  • @troyajohnson26
    @troyajohnson26 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    So I have a questions for you. I have a Civil Degree with an emphasis in Surveying, but really only took the basic 4-5 structural analysis classes for the degree. I'm confident I could pass the survey test no problem, but know I will fail seismic without putting a ton of studying in. With that said, is the book you recommend capable of teaching me what I need to know if I haven't actually taken a seismic class?
