Civil Engineering Hub — FE and PE civil exam prep, topic by topic

One home for every civil exam we cover: a free learning hub for each topic, and a timed exam simulation for each exam — all mapped to the current NCEES specifications. Water Resources is live and free today; Transportation is the pilot for everything that follows.

How this works

1

Learn in the hubs — free first

Every topic gets its own learning hub: theory, worked examples, calculators and mini-quizzes. The Water Resources hub is completely free. Newer hubs open their home page as a preview, with the full hub unlocked by Premium Plus.

2

Pick your exam

Choose the exam you are actually sitting — FE Civil, or your PE Civil depth module — and the simulation draws only from that exam’s question bank, in the same proportions as the real paper.

3

Practise under timed conditions

Full-length timed simulations with a per-area diagnostic after every attempt, so you can see exactly which areas to take back to the hub and close out.

A learning hub that adapts to your results

Every prep course hands every student the same syllabus. This one doesn’t. Tell us the email you used for your simulation and we build your learning hub around your diagnostic — detailed lessons, video lessons and worked examples, sequenced for what you need to fix first, and reviewed by a licensed engineer before it reaches you. Nobody else builds the study plan from your own results.

1

Get your diagnostic

Sit one of our timed simulations and finish with a per-topic diagnostic — or bring a diagnostic you already have.

2

Tell us your email

Enter the email you used for your simulation — we already hold your diagnostic, so there is nothing to upload. Sat a different provider’s exam? You can enter your per-topic scores instead.

3

Your hub, built for you

Within 48 hours your personalised hub is ready: your weakest topics lead, the full hub stays one click away, and every re-sit refreshes your plan the same way.

Premium Plus — $149 one-time for the pilot exam (PE Civil: Transportation). The detailed lessons for every topic, hand-built into your personal study plan and engineer-reviewed — plus a fresh Triple pass, so you learn first and then re-attempt. All for less than a single month of the big courses.

Choose your exam

Exam simulations are sold per exam: pick yours and you are directed to that exam’s question bank. Live exams can be bought today on the exam site; the Transportation pilot joins them once its bank is ready.

FE Civil

FE Civil

Live

The full FE Civil simulation: 110 questions across all 14 knowledge areas, drawn from a 440-question bank. Free 24-hour trial available.

PE Civil depth

PE Civil: Water Resources & Environmental

Live

The original depth simulation: 80 questions across the 12 WRE areas, drawn from a 320-question bank. Free 24-hour trial available.

PE Civil depth · Pilot

PE Civil: Transportation

Pilot — coming soon

The first additional simulator. Its 80-question form and 480-question bank are in preparation — see the pilot specification in this draft pack. No passes are sold until the bank passes review.

PE Civil depth

PE Civil: Structural

Coming soon

Planned. Follows the same model as the Transportation pilot once that pilot is proven.

PE Civil depth

PE Civil: Construction

Coming soon

Planned. Follows the same model as the Transportation pilot once that pilot is proven.

PE Civil depth

PE Civil: Geotechnical

Coming soon

Planned. Follows the same model as the Transportation pilot once that pilot is proven.

Question-bank sizes are the live banks’ current counts. Every simulation follows the current NCEES specifications — always confirm against the documents on ncees.org.

Learning Hubs

Each topic has its own learning hub, kept separate so you can study one subject deeply. The Water Resources hub is free for everyone, for good. Each newer hub shows its home page as a shop window; the full hub unlocks with a single Premium Plus purchase for that hub — and only that hub.

Topic hub

Water Resources

Free · Unlocked

The original hub: fluid mechanics, hydraulics, hydrology, groundwater, treatment and the rest of the water syllabus for FE Civil and PE Civil (WRE) — theory, calculators, formula index and mini-quizzes, all free.

Topic hub · Pilot
