This course teaches the following specific knowledge and skills:

• The engineer’s guidelines for practicing within Ohio's laws and rules
• The engineer’s duty to protect the public
• The engineer’s duty to make objective and truthful statements
• The engineer’s duty to limit practice to his or her field of competence

CERTIFICATE OF COMPLETION

You will be able to immediately print a certificate of completion after passing a twenty-five (25) question multiple-choice quiz. The quiz can be retaken unlimited times until a passing grade of 70% or better is earned. This course satisfies three (3) professional development hours (PDH) of continuing education.

In this course the student reviews the management and administrative procedures that practitioners will need to guide construction projects from the pre-construction phase to project close out successfully. The course will benefit professional engineers serving as project managers or field representatives by presenting techniques that can be applied to the construction project to help minimize or resolve claims or disputes.

CERTIFICATE OF COMPLETION

You will be able to immediately print a certificate of completion after passing a twenty (20) question multiple-choice quiz. The quiz can be retaken unlimited times until a passing grade of 70% or better is earned. This course satisfies four (4) professional development hours (PDH) of continuing education.

In this course the student will learn the essentials of a Design-Build project delivery system. The traditional approach for construction projects consists of the appointment of a designer on one side, and the appointment of a contractor on the other side. The design–build procurement route changes the traditional sequence of work. It answers the client's wishes for a single point of responsibility for both development of the design and project construction to effectively reduce risks and costs and speed-up final delivery.

The course provides an understanding of the structure and properties of metals, stress mechanisms, failure modes and the characteristics determine their usefulness for a specific application. Often, materials are subject to variable forces (loads). The engineer calculates these forces to establish the service that can be expected and material scientists experiment to determine how materials deform (elongate, compress, and twist) or break as a function of applied load, time, temperature, and other conditions.

SPECIFIC KNOWLEDGE OR SKILL OBTAINED

This course teaches the following specific knowledge and skills:

• Mechanical properties of metals
• Structure of metals and how those structures are affected by various processes
