I need a beer.
I thought this might be of interest to anyone thinking about taking the new 2-day exam next year. I emailed the NCEES to ask what codes were going to be used for the exam and here was the response I received:
By the same he means that the exam will be based on IBC 06 just like the current SEI and SEII exams. This is big for me because it means I wouldn't have to study new codes since I just took the general civil exam in October.They will be the same with the addition of AISI codes to the list. This is true for the April 2011 exam. We will soon set a firm date for the switch to IBC 2009, which will subsequently carry a number of other code changes with the switch, but the change will certainly be after the April 2011 exam is given.
