Construction Pe Civil Exam Study Guide: The Sitework, Scheduling, and Safety Topics Every Candidate Should Know, with Practice Questions and Detailed Answers

Most PE Civil Construction study guides were written for an exam that no longer exists. The old breadth-and-depth format is gone. Since April 2024, this exam tests one thing only, your actual specialty, in a single 80-question, computer-based format. This guide was built entirely around that current blueprint, not the outdated one still circulating in older study materials.

Written for working engineers who don't have months to spare, this book walks through exactly what NCEES tests: sitework, scheduling, and safety, the three knowledge areas that make up the bulk of your score, taught in plain, patient English with real worked calculations, not vague summaries.

Here's what's inside:

✓ Layout, elevations, and site investigation, taught with real calculations, not just definitions

✓ Lateral earth pressure, slope stability, and OSHA soil classification, worked step-by-step

✓ Critical path method, resource leveling, and schedule-crashing math, explained clearly enough to do by hand

✓ OSHA 29 CFR 1926 broken down by subpart, so you know exactly where to search on exam day

✓ A full 80-question practice exam weighted to match the current blueprint, with every answer pointing back to the exact section that teaches it

No filler chapters on topics this exam no longer tests. No outdated exam format. Just the material you actually need, organized in the order you actually need it.
