Lessons from Engineering Disasters (2-Hour Program)(Live Webinar)PE, PLS & RA HSW

John C. Huang, Ph.D, PE

The infamous crash of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge in 1940 and the failure of the New Orleans Levee System during Hurricane Katrina are just two examples of engineering disasters that have occurred throughout history. Most of such catastrophes can be attributed to human errors, design flaws, material failures, extreme conditions, or a combination of these reasons. In this webinar, we will examine some of the recent engineering disasters and the cause of such catastrophes in the hope of preventing history from repeating.

This course includes a multiple-choice quiz at the end, which is designed to enhance the understanding of course materials.


Note to Webinar Attendees:

Our live webinars (web seminars) are considered as "Courses of Learning" (live courses) by the New York State Board for Engineering and Land Surveying and as "Timed & Monitored Courses" by the Ohio State Board for Professional Engineers and Surveyors. Unlike the traditional seminars held in a classroom setting, our webinars deliver live instruction to your home or office. You will be able to interact directly with our instructor during a webinar through audio channel or chat box. However, you must attend the webinar at a scheduled date and time. We will verify your attendance through our online webinar platform. The certificate of completion will not be issued unless you attend the webinar and pass a quiz (all quiz questions will be reviewed during the webinar). Thank you for your cooperation.
