ASCE was definitely useful.  I didn't end up opening IBC during the actual exam, but there were a couple of questions during practice exams where I had to look them up from IBC.  The practice exam in Giancaspro I think, was asking about some geotech parameters and/or masonry retaining wall - the...

There was 1-2 exam questions on Wood and Masonry when I took the exam, but I don't think the version change on the standards will affect you significantly.  I actually brought in an older copy of AISC Steel Manual (Black Book, 2005) and still passed.  Good Luck!

I'm planning to take the Civil - Structural PE Exam this October, and I have been studying like crazy (been studying since May / June this year).  It will be my first time taking the exam and despite having read through this forum on people's experiences with the exam, I still don't know what to...
