Proof of acceptable structural engineering experience by way of a description of representative projects completed, or courses taught, verified by licensed professional engineers who claim competence in structural engineering, and have personal knowledge of the applicant's structural engineering experience. This requirement may be satisfied by the licensee's original application if sufficient structural engineering-specific experience is included and verified by a qualified reference(s); and 2. Proof of structural engineering education evidenced by original transcripts submitted directly to the Board office from the university or college showing coursework or degrees obtained. This requirement may be satisfied by the licensee's original application if all relevant transcripts are included; and 3. Proof of successful completion of one of the following structural engineering examination paths below: a. the NCEES Structural I and Structural II exams taken prior to January 1, 2011, b. an equivalent sixteen-hour state-written examination prior to January 1, 2004, c. the NCEES Structural II exam plus an equivalent eight- hour state-written structural examination prior to January 1, 2011, or d. the NCEES S.E. examination taken after January 1, 2011. B. Comity applicants for a professional engineer license who wish to also apply for authorization to use the title "Professional Structural Engineer", "P.E., S.E.", "S.E.", or any variation using the "S.E." designation and perform structural engineering analysis and design services for significant structures, shall submit the following by application and prescribed fees for Board consideration as minimum evidence that the applicant is qualified: 1. Proof of acceptable structural engineering experience by way of a description of representative projects completed, or courses taught, and verified by licensed professional engineers who claim competence in structural engineering, and have personal knowledge of the applicant's structural engineering experience; 2. Proof of structural engineering education, and original transcripts submitted directly to the Board office from the university or college showing coursework or degrees obtained since the individual's original professional engineer application to the Board, if applicable; and 3. Proof of successful completion of one of the following structural engineering examination paths below: a. the NCEES Structural I and Structural II exams taken prior to January 1, 2011, b. an equivalent sixteen-hour state-written examination prior to 2004, c. the NCEES Structural II exam plus an equivalent eight- hour state-written structural examination prior to January 1, 2011, or d. the NCEES S.E. examination taken after January 1, 2011. C. Initial applicants for a professional engineer license who wish to also apply for authorization to use the title "Professional Structural Engineer", "P.E., S.E.", "S.E.", or any variation using the "S.E." designation and to perform structural engineering analysis and design services for significant structures shall submit the following by application and prescribed fees for Board consideration as minimum evidence that the applicant is qualified, in addition to all requirements in this act: 1. Proof of acceptable structural engineering experience by way of a description of representative projects completed, or courses taught, and verified by licensed professional engineers having personal knowledge of the applicant's structural engineering experience; and 2. Proof of structural engineering education evidenced by original transcripts submitted directly to the Board office from the university or college showing coursework or degrees obtained. D. Professional engineers who have indicated in their official board records that they have competence in structural engineering may offer and perform structural engineering services and use the term structural engineer or structural engineering to describe their qualifications or services. However, only licensed professional engineers who have been authorized by this Board to do so may use "Professional Structural Engineer", "P.E., S.E.", "S.E.", or any "S.E." designation and to perform structural engineering analysis and design services for significant structures. E. The Board may define significant structures and establish standards of competence in structural engineering analysis and design relating to seismic or other influences which have a direct impact on the life, health, safety, property and welfare of the public.
