What is the difference between Bridge Inspector vs Structural Engineer?
| Aspect | Bridge Inspector | Structural Engineer |
|---|---|---|
| Certifications | Typically requires state-specific inspector certifications and safety training | Requires a Professional Engineer (PE) license and engineering degree |
