Targeted Training for Solving Civil PE Exam Structural Multiple-Choice Problems: Six-Minute Solutions for Civil PE Exam Structural Problems contains 100 multiple-choice problems representative of the Civil PE
exam’s format and structural knowledge areas. The first 20 problems
cover civil breadth exam structural topics. The remaining 80 problems
cover civil depth exam structural topics. Six-Minute Solutions includes hints that provide problem-solving guidance when you need it.
Each solution describes common errors so you can avoid choosing
incorrect answers. You’ll learn accurate and efficient solving methods
by reviewing each problem’s comprehensive, step-by-step solution.
Solutions also frequently reference the Civil PE exam structural codes
and standards to help familiarize you with the references you’ll use on
exam day. Due to the changes in codes for the 2015 NCEES PE
exam, there are some updates to this edition. Though not all of PPI's
products reflect the adopted editions of the new design standards, in
most cases the principles change very little. While specific procedures,
equations, or values may change gradually from one edition of a design
or reference standard to the next, PPI’s books continue to provide an
appropriate overview of the concepts presented, and will prepare you for
the upcoming exams.
