COURSE TITLE: Building Terrorism Mitigation - Site Layout and Design
COURSE NO: F05-002
COURSE PROVIDER: Gilbert Gedeon, P.E.
Building Terrorism Mitigation - Site Layout and Design
Course Highlights

This online engineering PDH course discusses site-level considerations for development. The intent of this guidance is to provide concepts for integrating land use planning, landscape architecture (vegetation, landforms, and water), site planning, and other strategies to mitigate the design basis threats as identified via the risk assessment.

 

Integrating security requirements into a larger, more comprehensive approach necessitates achieving a balance among many objectives such as reducing risk; facilitating proper building function; aesthetics and matching architecture; hardening of physical structures beyond required building codes and standards; and maximizing use of non-structural systems.

 

This 5 PDH online course is applicable to engineers, planners, architects, landscape designers, construction and operations personnel, security and law enforcement agents, as well as consultants and contractors to gain a better understanding in identifying and implementing crucial asset protection measures when planning and designing the site against potential terrorist attacks.

Learning Objectives

This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Planning the use of land
  • Selection the site
  • Orienting the buildings on the site
  • Integrating vehicle access, control points, physical barriers, landscaping and parking,
  • Protecting utili­ties for threat mitigation

COURSE TITLE: Concrete Airfield Pavements
COURSE NO: C01-031
COURSE PROVIDER: Gilbert Gedeon, P.E.
Concrete Airfield Pavements
Course Highlights

This online engineering PDH course provides an overview of the common problems and typical repairs and includes a visual system for evaluating and rating PCC pavements.

 

To manage aviation airfield pavements effectively, all pavements’ conditions should be periodically checked and then organized in an inventory in order to use these evaluations to set priorities for the project or find alternative treatments.

 

A comprehensive pavement management system involves collecting data and assessing several pavement characteristics: roughness, surface distress (condition), surface skid characteristics, drainage, and structure (pavement strength and deflection). Based on this data and combined with the economic analysis of the project, planners can develop treatment measures for the pavements.

 

This 1 PDH online course is applicable to civil engineers, airport owners and managers and professionals who are interested in learning more about concrete airfield pavements.
Learning Objectives

This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Familiarizing with the rigid performance of the airfield pavement
  • Identifying the different surface pavement defects such as polishing, map cracking, pop-outs, etc.
  • Learning about the longitudinal and transverse joints
  • Knowing the different pavement cracks such as slab cracks, D-cracking, corner cracks, etc.
  • Recognizing the type of pavement distortions and their causes 
  • Understanding the rating system used for evaluating the pavement surface condition
  • Knowing the treatment measures for the pavement defects
  • Providing practical advice on rating airfield pavement conditions

COURSE TITLE: Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavement
COURSE NO: C10-006
COURSE PROVIDER: Gilbert Gedeon, P.E.
Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavement
Course Highlights

This online engineering PDH course discusses the most common guidelines on the design, construction, maintenance, and rehabilitation of continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP).

 

Continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP) was introduced in the United States almost 100 years ago when the U.S. Bureau of Public Roads (now the Federal Highway Administration) constructed a CRCP test section on Columbia Pike in Arlington, Virginia. Since then, CRCP has been constructed in many states in the U.S. and in a number of other countries. As experience with the design and construction of CRCP has grown, a variety of lessons learned through practical experience and research have contributed to the development of best practices for CRCP throughout its life cycle.

 

Today, CRCP is designed and constructed as a pavement of choice for long-life performance, recognizing that initial smoothness will be maintained for decades and that maintenance during that time will be minimal.

 

This 10 PDH online course is applicable to civil engineers who are interested in learning about the design, construction and maintenance of CRCP as an ideal, long-life pavement solution for highly-trafficked and heavily-loaded roadways.
Learning Objectives

This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Familiarizing with the structure and design fundamentals of CRCP
  • Learning about longitudinal and transverse reinforcement and the characteristics of reinforcing steel
  • Learning about the different elements associated with CRCP construction
  • Familiarizing with the performance of CRCP in the U.S. and other countries
  • Gaining an overview of CRCP rehabilitation strategies, restoration and resurfacing
  • Exploring the use of CRCP as an overlay
