    Hardcover books verse paperback

    Great list of favorite references.  I am definitely interested in Graffeo and #5 looks pretty enticing as well.  I've taken and passed the mechanical PE (HVAC) exam in 2014.  In 2015 I took an in depth exam on the 2014 NFPA70 in regard to ICC commercial electrical inspector, so I have a...

    Hardcover books verse paperback

    Thanks for the input!  I am definitely looking cheap.  I have ordered Wildi and the Power System Analysis older edition by stevenson.  I plan on taking my time to study for the exam and take it whenever I am ready.

    Hardcover books verse paperback

    I noticed Amazon has a lot of the recommended reference materials in your choice of either hardcover and paperback.  The price of the hardcover books are often above 100 dollars whereas paperbacks go for around 20 dollars.  Is there any reason I would need to buy a hardcover version of a book...

    LEED

    Well, I am taking the tests tomorrow (LEED GA and AP O+M)... I did not study as much as I wanted to but I am hoping for the best!

    MERM binding is already shot...

    I thought the integrity of a hardbound book is largely influenced by the environment the book resides in. I think if the book is in a highly humid environment (RH > 70%) it is more susceptible to adhesive failures due to the possibility of condensation acting as a barrier between the spine...

    LEED

    I've read that (over the weekend) and it does not seem bad!

    LEED

    There is not much out there, LEED just went to v4 in June or July this year which is slightly different than 2009. I'm taking LEED GA and O+M on the same day this month.

    LEED

    Yes, I do. Mainly from doing building surveys and being somewhat involved in EBOM reports. I also have an energy audit background.
  14. G

    LEED

    Yes, they are both v4. v4 started at the end of July this year. The core and concept book is not bad...only 90 something pages and flooded with pictures and large text.

    LEED

    I'm taking the exam on September 30th of this month. Haven't started studying yet but I am taking the LEED GA and LEED AP O+M on the same day within a four hour window...am I screwed? I won't be doing a review course.

    Maryland PE

    Good call. I wish the price wasn't so steep for guests ($30 dollars per person). I wonder if we miss the award night do they end up still mailing the wall certificates out?

    I live in Laytonsvile, MD (on border of Gaithersburg) and take the metro to Farragut North usually everyday. I think on the award night day I will be on site in a different location in DC.. I'm hoping we finish around 2-3 PM to allow some extra time to get up there. You in Arlington?

    Maryland PE

    I'm going to go! Only issue is I will be in DC during the day so it will be a hike to go up there and be there by 6 PM
