    Surety Trying to Extricate Themselves from Figg

    I put this here rather than the collapse thread. Beware of your D/B contract language, arrangements and disclosures I guess. Or, just try to avoid catastrophes. https://insuranceinsider.com/articles/120316/travelers-and-phoenix-sue-to-avoid-payout-in-florida-bridge-collapse IC

    Delaware River Bridge Closure

    http://www.enr.com/blogs/11-mid-atlantic-monitor/post/41308-large-fracture-closes-delaware-river-bridge Looks like a deck truss. Must be continuous near this location for the top chord to fracture. IC

    Former Colleague Tells my Former Client a Mis-Truth?

    Not that big of a deal really, but I'm interested to hear opinions. I left Company XZY on uncomfortable terms a couple years ago and just recently a former client called that firm to ask for my help on a project. A former colleague took the call and mentioned he thought I was out of...

    I-64 Sherman-Minton Bridge Emergency Closure

    Lot of poor information/descriptions out there, but apparently they found cracks in the tie-girder fabricated from T1 steel. I would surmise it has bad weld details too. Google for various articles. IC

    Do you actually carry around your PE pocket ID card?

    I was recently challenged at a site inspection by the adversarial engineer to produce my pocket ID card that we are required to carry for this particular state. I am licensed and current, but shame on me, I did not have my card. He says he is reporting me to the Board. I generally peruse the...

    Regarding PE/SE licensure, states requirements, etc.....
