    steel manual for construction depth

    also I noticed that on the latest exam specification NCEES provides for construction, dated May 6th of this year, they are saying 13th edition. But the latest one is 14th edition. i bought the 14th. Do you think there is a reason they specifically kept 13th there? or they just didnt update?
