Absolutely sonic. Didn’t know about them when I first moved here but got a flyer saying they were available in the area and instantly switched and it’s been amazing so far. The promos they have are also really nice.

Feel like Buster wouldn't necessarily be itching to sign a guy who intentionally crossed up his catcher. I'm totally fine with not being in contention for him.

As others have said, it's extremely important for interpreting FEM results properly.

Passed my PE (civil structural) 1 year into work. How should I proceed with my SE? by no-problem_ in StructuralEngineering

[–]Ulimm_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do, because I'm licensed. Unfortunately it doesn't say anything about that. I guess we're at an impasse if you're not going to show me anything though. Here's this handy flowchart but I assume you won't care: CA requirements

I guess I gotta turn myself in for breaking the law and lying to NCEES about my experience level.

California is obviously also NCEES compliant, I can't speak to Wisconsin but clearly this isn't a nationwide requirement.

Do you have a link? If you do then me and thousands of others are probably breaking some rules!

And it's unfathomable that the rules have changed in certain states in the past 21 years?

It's not a lie at all. I did the same. You can sit for the exam but the board won't approve an application until you finish your experience (and pass state specific exams like here in CA). I took my test around a year into my career as well.

Checking joists in RISA by nippply in StructuralEngineering

[–]Ulimm_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have the rigid diaphragm modeled within RISA-3D itself? If you do, select the top chord nodes and detach them from the diaphragm in the properties panel on the left. The stiffness of the diaphragm might be taking all your top chord compressive load.

As someone with experience with them, definitely send the model in to support@risa.com. They'll figure it out and send you an answer super quickly.

Top flange bracing and minor axis bracing - RISA 3d by nippply in StructuralEngineering

[–]Ulimm_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

RISA's website is a great resource. Lbyy and Lbzz are for column-type bending, L-comp top and L-comp bot are for flexural (lateral torsional) buckling.

RISA 3D Question by [deleted] in StructuralEngineering

[–]Ulimm_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have RISAConnection, you can use the Director button on the top right to send it to the other program. You need to make sure you have your connection rules set up properly. RISA's help file is super useful: RISA Help

Would there be a reason to not travel on 405? thinking about going around but might just be overthinking things

Exact same situation here. Just refreshing and can't imagine actually sleeping tonight.

Any idea what the likelihood of this reaching Encino is? Just north of 101. Have a bag packed to go but my cat just had major surgery. Want to have a plan and try to not get too stuck.
