There is a whole exam just for structures
On top of the ordinary engineering exam, NCEES (National Council of Examiners for Engineering and Surveying) runs a separate SE (Structural Engineering) exam, which some states require before you can sign off on the most important structures. It has two parts, gravity loads and lateral loads such as wind and earthquakes, each with a 6 hour breadth section and a 6.5 hour depth section, taken separately at $350 each.
