COURSE TITLE: Curing Portland Cement Concrete Pavements
COURSE NO: C05-006
COURSE PROVIDER: Gilbert Gedeon, P.E.
Curing Portland Cement Concrete Pavements
Course Highlights

This online engineering PDH course provides guidance on details of concrete curing practice as they pertain to construction of Portland cement concrete pavements. It is organized around the major events in curing pavements: curing immediately after placement (initial curing), curing during the period after final finishing (final curing), and termination of curing and evaluation of effectiveness of curing.

 

Curing has long been recognized as an important process in constructing durable concrete pavements. Proper curing allows the concrete to develop its potential strength and durability. Inadequate curing can result in surface damage in the form of plastic shrinkage cracking, spalling, and erosion of paste. Since many variables influence the choice of curing materials and when and how to apply curing, the material presented places particular emphasis on attention to details with respect to moisture retention and concrete temperature control.

 

This 5 PDH  online  course is applicable to civil, structural and geotechnical engineers, as well as design and construction personnel involved with the design and installation of concrete pavements.

Learning Objectives

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

  • Selection of curing materials and procedures
  • Analysis of concrete properties and jobsite conditions
  • Knowing how to adjust the curing practice to account for specific project conditions
Course Document

In this professional engineering CEU course, you need to review the Federal Highway Administration Publication FHWA-RD-02-099, "Guide for Curing of Portland Cement Concrete Pavements".

COURSE TITLE: Roller Compacted Concrete
COURSE NO: S08-001
COURSE PROVIDER: Gilbert Gedeon, P.E.
Roller Compacted Concrete
Course Highlights

This online engineering PDH course provides information and guidance on the use of RCC in dams and other civil works structures. Elements discussed include investigation and selection of materials, mixture proportioning, design and construction considerations, construction equipment and techniques, inspection, and performance.

 

The American Concrete Institute (ACI) defines roller-compacted concrete (RCC) as "concrete compacted by roller compaction; concrete that, in its unhardened state, will support a roller while being compacted." Properties of hardened RCC can be similar to those of conventionally placed concrete. However, RCC can also be made with hardened properties that are outside the range of typical properties of conventionally placed concrete. The term "roller compaction" is also defined by ACI as "a process for compacting concrete using a roller, often a vibrating roller."

 

RCC may be considered for application where no-slump concrete can be transported, placed, and compacted using earth and rock-fill construction equipment. Ideal RCC projects will involve large placement areas, little or no reinforcement, and little or no embedded metal work or other discontinuities such as piles. Application of RCC should be considered when it is economically competitive with other construction methods. It may be considered in lieu of gabions or riprap for bank protection, especially in those areas where riprap is scarce. It may be considered for large work pads, aprons, or paved areas, massive open foundations, base slabs, cofferdams, massive backfill, emergency repairs, and overtopping protection for  embankment dams. It may be used in lieu of conventionally placed concrete in concrete gravity and arch-gravity dams. RCC may be considered for use in levees where foundations are adequate and may also be used in caps for jetties to reduce the amount of required rock.

 

This 8 PDH online course is applicable to civil, structural or geotechnical engineers, as well as design and construction personnel involved with the planning, design, construction of roller-compacted concrete structures.

Learning Objectives

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

  • RCC applications, objectives and advantages
  • Investigation and selection of materials
  • Mixture proportioning considerations and selection
  • Understanding the properties of RCC
  • Design and construction considerations
  • Construction methods and equipment
  • Quality control and quality assurance in RCC construction
  • RCC performance

COURSE TITLE: Engineering Ethics for Mississippi Professional Engineers
COURSE NO: MS2-001
COURSE PROVIDER: Gilbert Gedeon, P.E.
Engineering Ethics for Mississippi Professional Engineers
Note: This 2 PDH engineering ethics course is only applicable to Mississippi Professional Engineers. It is also offered as a 2 PDH recorded video presentation and as a 2 PDH live interactive webinar.
Accepted in:
Course Highlights

This online engineering PDH course presents the laws and rules of professional responsibility governing the practice of engineering in the State of Mississippi through the Mississippi Code: Title 73, Chapter 13, “Professional Engineers and Surveyors” and Title 30, Part 901, “Rules and Regulations of the Mississippi Board of Licensure for Professional Engineers and Surveyors”.

 

Engineering ethics is (1) the study of moral issues and decisions confronting individuals and organizations involved in engineering and (2) the study of related questions about moral conduct, character, ideals and relationships of peoples and organizations involved in technological development (Martin and Schinzinger, Ethics in Engineering).

 

Since engineers are faced with frequent moral and ethical dilemmas while practicing their engineering profession, this course will provide you with moral and ethical guidance in your decision making process. Most importantly, it will provide you with insight on how to conduct, respect and protect your engineering practice with the utmost professionalism.

 

This 2 PDH online course is applicable to Professional Engineers licensed in the State of Mississippi and who are required to demonstrate continuing professional competency in engineering ethics as a condition of their license renewal. For each renewal period, every licensee must complete thirty (30) professional development hours, at least one (1) of which must be relative to the rules of professional responsibility, conduct and ethics. The remaining hours shall relate to the licensee's area of practice.

Learning Objectives

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

  • Understanding the Mississippi laws and rules regulating the practice of engineering in the State of Mississippi and their application to Professional Engineers
  • Understanding the rules of professional responsibility, professional conduct and engineering ethics
  • Familiarizing with the Mississippi disciplinary process and the various violations and corresponding penalties imposed by the board
