decades ago, however italone no longer closes the gap in knowledge that civil engineers must attain and maintain,through education, mentored experience, and self-development for responsible charge – asdocumented in the current edition of the CEBOK.In 2019, ASCE completed work on the third edition of the CEBOK [1]. This CEBOKdemonstrates that the gap continues to expand at the pace of change – and civil engineers need topursue post-graduate education along with structured mentorship, self-development, and life-long learning to first attain and then maintain the competencies required for responsible charge.Hence the need for a certification program and credential to attest to a civil engineer’s fulfillmentof the CEBOK.

Reducingrigging angles results in a significant amplification of forces in the rigging, potentially leading tofailure. By varying the connection points and sling length, students will be able to calculate thepredicted forces and analyze the best combination of connection points and sling lengths tosuccessfully complete the critical lift. The forces in rigging (sling, chain, wire rope, webbing,shackles, etc.) increase substantially as the angle formed by the sling

None of the students in either offering had taken either classespreviously and all were architectural engineering majors with a structural focus. Also, the sameset of students were mandated to take both classes in their 4th year. As such, the student populationis identical from one class to the next which allowed for identical teams in both semesters.
