A. GS-13:
One year of specialized experience equivalent to the GS-12 grade level in the Federal service, military or private sector as listed below:
* Applying civil engineering concepts, principles, and theories to evaluate structural dynamics and provide technical advice and recommendations
* Conducting technical evaluations of structures to identify and protect vulnerabilities to damage or compromise and recommends corrective actions
* Demonstrating the ability to work in a multidisciplinary environment providing engineering expertise to complex projects, collaborating with other scientific fields.

B. GS-14:
One year of specialized experience equivalent to the GS-13 grade level in the Federal service, military or private sector as listed below:
* Demonstrating application of civil engineering concepts, principles, and advanced theories to lead evaluations of structural dynamics civil infrastructure dependencies and delivers expert advice and policy-level recommendations
* Leading and managing technical evaluations of structures or civil engineering infrastructure to protect against vulnerabilities, damage, or compromise
* Managing complex projects in a multidiscipline environment integrating expertise from multiple scientific and engineering fields, to drive the development of novel, tools, and techniques. Experience refers to paid and unpaid experience, including volunteer work done through National Service programs (e.g., Peace Corps, Ameri Corps) and other organizations (e.g., professional; philanthropic; religious; spiritual; community, student, social). Volunteer work helps build critical competencies, knowledge, and skills and can provide valuable training and experience that translates directly to paid employment.

You will receive credit for all qualifying experience, including volunteer experience. In addition to meeting qualifications, your application package must reflect the applicable experience to meet the Individual Occupational Requirements for the 0801, series as listed below:
Engineering. To be acceptable, the program must: (1) lead to a bachelor's degree in a school of engineering with at least one program accredited by ABET; (2) include differential and integral calculus and courses (more advanced than first-year physics and chemistry) in five of the following seven areas of engineering science or physics:
* statics, dynamics
* strength of materials (stress-strain relationships)
* fluid mechanics, hydraulics
* thermodynamics
* electrical fields and circuits
* nature and properties of materials (relating particle and aggregate structure to properties)
* any other comparable area of fundamental…
