Interactive & Video Discount Package - Ohio Civil and Ethics 30 PDH

This online engineering PDH interactive presentation provides guidance on pavement preservation concepts, pavement evaluation, and strategy selection procedures.

The need for the effective management of transportation assets has never been greater. In an era of an aging infrastructure, ever-increasing traffic demands, and shrinking budgets, transportation agencies are continually being asked to “do more with less” in maintaining the condition of their facilities.

Pavements represent a large part of that transportation infrastructure, and the need for their effective management is just as acute. Pavements that are left to deteriorate without timely preservation or maintenance treatments are likely to require major rehabilitation and reconstruction much sooner, and those are costly and disruptive activities.

This online engineering PDH interactive presentation provides a brief overview of the design and construction of Geosynthetic Reinforced Soil (GRS) abutments and the Geosynthetic Reinforced Soil-Integrated Bridge System (GRS-IBS).

Geosynthetic reinforced soil (GRS) consists of alternating layers of compacted fill and closely spaced geosynthetic reinforcement. The technology has many applications, with bridge support being the focus of this design and construction presentation. This presentation also includes several updates based on continued research conducted at the Federal Highway Administration’s Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center, as well as user feedback resulting from the use of GRS in the construction of more than 300 bridges.

Revisions include additional details on the design, construction, quality assurance, in-service inspection, maintenance, and repair of the GRS-IBS, along with revised material specifications, site selection criteria, and hydraulic guidance.

This 4 PDH online interactive presentation is applicable to benefit owners, designers, and construction personnel interested in implementing this technology while realizing how to design and construct a GRS-IBS that will have an estimated service life of at least 100 years.

This interactive online presentation on engineering PDH offers an in-depth look at filters and drainage systems in the design and construction of embankment dams, highlighting their critical importance for dam safety and long-term effectiveness. It addresses key factors influencing filter performance, such as filter functions, material choices, gradation criteria, and construction techniques. Best practices for filter design, internal erosion prevention, and the compatibility of filter and base materials are emphasized.

 

The presentation starts by introducing internal erosion and its risks to embankment dams, underscoring the necessity of well-designed filters. It explores design principles, including particle migration control, permeability assurance, and adaptability to construction variations. Participants will learn about practical material selection, installation methods, and common construction issues. Furthermore, the presentation includes filter testing approaches, quality control measures, and case studies that illustrate both successful practices and failure examples to enhance understanding.

 

 

This 3 PDH online interactive presentation is designed for dam safety professionals, geotechnical engineers, project managers, and civil engineers seeking to enhance their knowledge of filter design for embankment dams, mitigate failure risks, and ensure safe and resilient dam infrastructure.

This online engineering PDH interactive presentation provides a detailed exploration of filter and drainage systems for embankment dam design and construction, emphasizing their critical role in dam safety and long-term performance. It covers core topics such as filter design principles, gradation criteria, material quality evaluation, construction practices, and quality control procedures. The presentation highlights best practices for preventing internal erosion, ensuring material compatibility, and achieving reliable filter performance under various field conditions.

This presentation begins by explaining the function of filters in embankment dams and the risks associated with improper design or material use. It delves into gradation design procedures, laboratory testing techniques such as the NEF and CEF tests, self-healing evaluation methods, and compressive strength testing for filter cohesion. Participants will gain insights into key construction considerations, including placement strategies, moisture control, compaction methods, and avoidance of material segregation. Additionally, the presentation covers real-world case studies, sampling methods, borrow source selection, and guidance on ensuring long-term filter performance under hydraulic and seismic stress.

This online engineering PDH video presentation focuses on the measurement of the flow rate of a fluid flowing under pressure in a closed conduit. It discusses the several categories of pipe flow measurement devices along with some associated example calculations for differential pressure flow meters and pitot tubes. It addresses the general principles of operation for each type of flow meter and general advantages and disadvantages of each.

 

Measurement of the flow rate of a fluid flowing under pressure (closed conduit) is carried out for a variety of purposes, such as billing for water supply to homes or businesses, or for monitoring or process control of a wide variety of industrial processes that involve flowing fluids. The closed conduit is often circular, but also may be square or rectangular (such as a heating duct) or any other shape.

 

This 3 PDH online video presentation is intended primarily for civil, environmental, chemical, mechanical, and industrial engineers, who are interested in learning more about flow measurement in a closed conduit.

This 2 PDH video presentation presents the laws of professional responsibility and ethics governing the practice of engineering in the State of Ohio with added emphasis on behavior as a professional member of the workforce.

 

We will look at the provisions of professional conduct from two viewpoints.  First your conduct as a professional engineer with behavior that is unique to engineers such as stamping drawings, signing official or technical documents, preparing estimates for clients or employers, and submitting engineering reports to official agencies.

 

And then, secondly, your behavior as a member of the larger workforce where you communicate with team members, follow company policies and procedures, and your overall behavior as part of a workplace community.

 

We will look at disciplinary cases and discuss outcomes in situations where professional engineers have violated the requirements of professional responsibility and ethical conduct – the decisions we make when no one is watching.

 

This 2 PDH recorded video seminar is intended for all Ohio-licensed professional engineers who must prove continuing professional competency in engineering ethics as a condition of their license renewal.
