JES Educates Engineers About Foundation Systems

April 13, 2011 - PRLog -- Virginia Beach, Va. (April 11, 2011) –  JES, a structural engineering company specializing in foundation systems, was recently approved as a continuing education provider for the National Council of Examiners for Engineering and Surveying (NCEES).  The NCEES is a national nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing professional licensure for engineers and surveyors. The Virginia Board of the NCEES requires that Professional Engineers must complete 16 professional development hours (pdhs) in the two years immediately preceding their license renewal.

JES’s continuing education course educates engineers on the causes and symptoms of foundation settlement, methods of rehabilitation for existing foundations and methods for stabilization for new construction foundations.  “JES is pleased to be educating engineers about the choices available to them for deep foundation support systems while also providing them with professional development hours to maintain their licensure,” says Jesse Waltz, P.E. and owner of JES.

Engineering companies interested in JES presenting their course on foundation support systems in rehabilitation and new construction can contact Michelle McLees at mmclees@jesnow.com or 804.425.9914.  JES also provides continuing education courses to real estate agents, home inspectors and architects throughout the Mid-Atlantic about the signs, symptoms and solutions for foundation failure.  All courses are free of charge and more information can be found at www.JESwork.com.
