I used to work as a structural engineer in my country, however it does pay bills, it takes us more of our personal life, and unfortunately it does not give us a decent lifestyle. I am now working as a truss designer and I feel fulfilled. It's a shame because I still love structural engineering, but it's not viable

I just want to thank you and let you know that your videos have been very helpful in many ways. I've always had a vision and a passion in becoming a civil engineering with the focus in structural engineering since I was in MS. And you know, life happens...I joined the USAF, got married, had kids, finished my contract and now I am here. Starting school all over again but with a toddler and a newborn. So it's definitely been difficult mentally and for sure there's been many doubts. However, that's when your videos become helpful because of the reassurance that you provide that can be done. Not only that, but all the helpful information that we can use a guide. Much appreciated!

I agree. Codes and technology just keep getting more complex. The undergrad degree in structures just isn't enough in-depth training. An MSCE or MSAE (architectural engineering, structures concentration) is mandatory. many consulting firms will only hire MS grads. PhD? Could actually work against you.

@MatPicardal
2 жыл бұрын
Minimal guidance on first building project, I knew nothing, I needed to ask a lot of questions. And that's the expectation of new graduates, you know nothing, even if you went to grad school. So you should be asking questions, if you aren't it's a red flag that you're good at going around in circles because you don't want to ask for help (aka, good at wasting time and money). TLDR, ask questions, and if your firm/management makes you feel stupid for asking questions and doesn't want/have time to support you, then you're in the wrong firm.

As a structural engineer you will be faced with design problems in all materials. There is a hell of a lot to learn, so just getting training in one or two will never work, although you can specialize once you get some well-rounded experience. You need to have a working knowledge of: Structural steel, welding and connections, reinforced concrete, precast concrete, post-tensioned concrete, structural masonry, wood framing, aluminum structures, heavy timber, cold rolled steel, indeterminate structural analysis, material properties of steel and concrete, strength of materials in general, seismic analysis, statics, structural dynamics and engineering economics. Like a doctor, be a general practitioner first and brain surgeon later.
