Civil Engineering Reference Manual 12th Edition by Charles Lindeburg – All You Need for 8 Hour PE Exam

Civil Engineering Reference Manual 12th Edition

I passed the 8-hour PE Examination first try using the Civil Engineering Reference Manual (CERM).

Morning (breadth) exam – There were problems that came directly out of the CERM.

Afternoon (depth) exam – Many of the problems were supported strongly by the CERM.  I also used the NCEES sample exams for Transportation.

The PE exam is a very simple endeavor if you put the time into it.  I studied daily for about an hour, with a few hours extra on weekends.  Don’t use too many reference manuals, just get the CERM and buckle down.
