  More about the SE Exam Refresher Course

  We Hear You!

  Thanks to everyone who provided feedback regarding their experience talking the new NCEES computer-based test (CBT) – we’re continuing to monitor the situation and provide feedback to NCEES and the Illinois SE Board. In light of the recent changes to the SE Exam and the user experience, we understand that providing support to those taking the exam is more vital than ever before. We have made the following changes to our SE Exam Refresher Course, effective immediately:

  • Registrants will have access to all course materials (recorded and live) for two years from date of purchase.
  • Registrants who do not pass the full SE Exam will be able to re-enroll for the SE Exam Refresher Course at no cost within one month of receiving notification from NCEES.

  Courtesy Saudi Binladin Group

  Using Jeddah Tower—the world’s first skypiercer—as a case study, this presentation examines the challenges of restarting building construction after a several year pause. It covers all the necessary considerations involved in a restart including an as-built condition assessment, structural performance assumptions, updated testing, construction methods, and constructability reviews, with emphasis on integrating revised information into analysis, design, and delivery.

  Learning Objectives

  • Identify the principal technical and decision making challenges involved in restarting construction from an in-place/as-built condition after a prolonged pause.
  • Explain how a restart can affect structural performance assumptions, including stiffness, dynamic behavior, wind response, creep and shrinkage, and vertical compensation.
  • Recognize practical strategies for integrating updated testing, construction methods, and constructability reviews into the analysis and delivery of the world's first skypiercer.

  Human–AI Agent Collaboration in Structural Engineering and Code Development

  Note: This presentation will not be recorded.

  AI agents are large language model systems that plan multistep tasks and execute them using external tools. In structural engineering, these systems can now complete analyses that previously required days/weeks of specialist effort, such as deriving design expressions or computing collapse loads.

  This talk examines what these capabilities mean for tackling long-standing problems and for the development and maintenance of building codes. The talk first reviews how agents are being used in structural engineering design workflows. Then, we present case studies from our group in which a lead AI agent orchestrates subordinate agents to derive and verify solutions to structural mechanics problems, while an independent agent audits the resulting claims. These cases include simulation-free analyses of RC columns under fire conditions and a mechanics-based model for the shear strength of steel- and FRP-strengthened beams. Building on these results, the talk outlines how AI agents could support code committees. The talk also covers current limitations of agents in this setting, including fabricated references and unverified numerical output. Accountability and licensure questions are addressed with attention to how agent-generated evidence could enter a consensus standards process. The talk closes with a proposed framework in which agents generate and verify technical evidence while engineers and committees retain responsibility for adoption.

  Learning Objectives

  Upon completion of this session, participants will be able to:

  1. Describe how AI agents plan and execute multistep structural engineering tasks, including the roles of lead, subordinate, and independent audit agents in a verification workflow.

  2. Evaluate the reliability of agent-generated structural analyses by distinguishing certified two-sided bounds from unverified numerical estimates and by identifying common failure modes such as fabricated references.

  3. Explain how AI agents can support building code development by tracing the technical basis of existing provisions and checking proposed changes against test data, while engineers and code committees retain responsibility for adoption.

  1 hr of CE Credit

  CE certificates are emailed out one week after the presentation to give time to verify attendance time.

  NASA's Mobile Launcher 2 (ML2): Connections Built to Launch

  

  This presentation examines the unique structural challenges encountered in NASA's Mobile Launcher 2 (ML2) and the pivotal role cast steel connections played in integrating large hollow structural section (HSS) members within one of the world's most demanding launch support structures. Faced with extreme loading conditions and stringent weight restrictions, the project demanded innovative connection solutions beyond traditional fabricated steel approaches.

  Attendees will gain insight into engineering and constructability considerations associated with connecting HSS members in this critical aerospace application, as well as how steel castings helped achieve demanding requirements for strength, durability, and precision. Through this ML2 case study, the presentation will demonstrate how cast steel connections reduced overall steel tonnage, enhanced structural performance, and introduced modular solutions while improving tolerance.

  Participants will leave with a deeper understanding of the value of combining cast steel technology with HSS construction and the opportunities for addressing complex design and constructability challenges.

  Learning Objectives

  • Describe the structural challenges associated with the Mobile Launcher 2 (ML2) tower and the role of cast steel nodes in addressing complex load paths and connection geometries.
  • Explain how custom designed cast steel nodes and flange fittings simplified the fabrication and erection of the modular assemblies of the tower when compared to conventionally fabricated steel connections.
  • Assess the impact of steel castings on strength, stiffness, weight, constructability, and overall performance of complex structural steel connections.
