Several problems on the Hartmann Construction practice exams reference the International Building Code (IBC). I haven't seen these types of problems anywhere else. Should we have this reference for the Exam? Thanks in advance!

You should have all references available that the NCEES publishes as a developmental reference for the exam. Not having a reference is shooing yourself in the foot of there's a specific problem relating to that reference (as good as they are, the CERM and similar do not have the entire body of a reference manual).

 
Right, but this reference isn't included in the NCEES list, only on the well respected Beth Lin Hartmann practice exams...

 
It's on the structural exam list - which is why I printed/brought it, I was considering construction and structural.

It wouldn't be a bad reference to have, but there shouldn't be a specific question relating to it being not on the design standard list.
