I have a copy of the AISC beam tables that I downloaded from the net a while back, it's a 12-page document with lots of various static loading conditions. I can send it to you if you'd like, just send me a pvt. message.

You won't be allowed to wear headphones but I strongly suggest ear plugs, in particular, try the Hearos brand, they're very comfortable and block out nearly all the noise. It's just enough for you to be able to stay focused on the exam and not be distracted by people coughing in the room...

I did the same thing you did, put all my hand-written notes in a binder and had no problems when I brought them to the exam room.

You can most definitely bring in practice problems with solutions as long as they are bound. I had no problems with that in California, also make sure your board is ok with hand-written notes, if not, just photo-copy them and put them in a binder (they're worried about hand written notes in...

I looked at the MDM section and WOW, it's basically just a collection of equations. Little to no explanations or examples like in MERM, I'm just VERY glad I took the exam when I did.

@squaretaper PE....aren't you glad we passed the PE when we did? Imagine taking this exam wihout the use of personal notes, references, books, etc. Look at the evaluation above for the guide that's offered for the TFS exam in particular. WDYT?

Hello everyone, if you're looking for the older version of the NCEES MDM exam, it's available on Amazon and it was actually published in 2010, not 2011. Paperback: 88 pages Publisher: Ncees (November 1, 2010) Language: English ISBN-10: 1932613609 ISBN-13: 978-1932613605...

That's the correct one (https://www.amazon.com/Mechanical-Exam-Review-Materials-Engineering/dp/1545055890/ref=sr_1_fkmrnull_1?keywords=dr+timothy+kennedy&qid=1550596449&s=gateway&sr=8-1-fkmrnull) . It is not a collection of practice problems like the 6-min. solution, BUT...

Thanks! I just watched the sales on line (https://www.michaels.com/custom-framing ) and waited for the next best deal. They have one every month it seems, right now you can get 40% by following the link above but you have to order on-line. I'd wait until they have an in-store coupon deal so you...

Thanks! Yes I brought my certificate and pencil to Michael's (because Aaron Brothers no longer has physical stores, at least not in my area) and the lady I spoke with did all the layout in front of me. Great service. The turn-around time was under 2 weeks and well worth the wait. Congrats on...

Hello my fellow Californian, read your post and thought you might benefit from my past experiences.  Here you will see what resources I used for the Mechanical MDM PE exam as well as a recommended study plan. Good luck my friend, and feel free to ping me with questions if you get stuck.

I wonder if people will be able to purchase the PDF handbooks in advance so they can become familiar with them.

Looks like NCEES has made it official and the last time anyone will be able to take the paper-and-pencil Mechanical PE Exam (any discipline) will be October '19:  https://ncees.org/exams/cbt/ The conversion schedule is below, what do you guys think about this?

You're very welcome and yes, I hope to continue to help others pass the test and avoid repeating my story! 

Hey @JFrost...you're very welcome and glad you're finding my experiences useful. You can find some of Dr. Tom's videos on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mLfmjcovlc&list=PLNY488wl-RoDeoLt_jU35Os8tjuVLiWwH But it appears that some of the MDM related videos have been taken...

Hello there... if you already submitted your notice of successful examintion, BPELSG updates the new license numbers toward the end of the month so I'd keep checking over the next 2 weeks. I was in the same position as you and it only took them 2 weeks or so to publish my license number...

There are 2 loads acting on the highest loaded bolt: Direct and Torsional. Here's how I worked the problem:
