Reviewing it before exam day will help you become familiar with the charts, formulas, tables, and other reference information provided. You won't be allowed to bring your personal copy of the Handbook into the exam room. Instead, the computer-based exam will include a PDF version of the Handbook for your use. No printed copies of the Handbook will be allowed in the exam room.  \nThe PDF version of the FE Reference Handbook that you use on exam day will be very similar to the printed version. Pages not needed to solve exam questions—such as the cover, introductory material, index, and exam specifications—will not be included in the PDF version. In addition, NCEES will periodically revise and update the Handbook, and each FE exam will be administered using the updated version.  \nThe FE Reference Handbook does not contain all the information required to answer every question on the exam. Basic theories, conversions, formulas, and definitions examinees are expected to know have not been included. Special material required for the solution of a particular exam question will be included in the question itself.  \nUpdates on exam content and procedures  \nNCEES.org is our home on the web. Visit us there for updates on everything exam-related, including specifications, exam-day policies, scoring, and practice tests. A PDF version of the FE Reference Handbook similar to the one you will use on exam day is also available there.  \nErrata  \nTo report errata in this book, send your correction using our chat [feature on NCEES.org. We will](feature on NCEES.org. We will) also posterrata on the website. Examinees are not penalized for any errors in the Handbook that affect an exam question.  \nCONTENTS  \nUnits ................................................................................................................... 1  \nConversion Factors............................................................................................. 2  \nEthics .................................................................................................................. 3  \nSafety................................................................................................................. 11  \nMathematics ......................................................................................................27  \nEngineering Probability and Statistics ..............................................................42  \nChemistry ..........................................................................................................59  \nMaterials Science/Structure of Matter ..............................................................65  \nStatics ................................................................................................................72  \nDynamics...................................................................................","cbCaii20cXcIlGfS","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaii20cXcIlGfS","pdf",5175245,293,"English","# Units\n# Conversion Factors\n# Ethics\n# Safety\n# Mathematics\n# Engineering Probability and Statistics\n# Chemistry\n# Materials Science/Structure of Matter\n# Statics\n# Dynamics\n# Mechanics of Materials\n# Thermodynamics\n# Fluid Mechanics\n# Heat Transfer\n# Instrumentation, Measurement, and Controls\n# Engineering Economics\n# Chemical Engineering\n# Civil Engineering\n# Environmental Engineering\n# Electrical and Computer Engineering\n# Industrial and Systems Engineering\n# Mechanical Engineering\n# Index\n# Appendix: FE Exam Specifications","[{\"question\":\"What resource can candidates use during the FE exam?\",\"answer\":\"Only the FE Reference Handbook is permitted as the resource material during the exam.\"},{\"question\":\"Will the handbook used in the computer-based exam match the printed version?\",\"answer\":\"The PDF version used on exam day is very similar to the printed version, while pages not needed for solving questions are not included.\"},{\"question\":\"How does NCEES handle updates and errors in the handbook?\",\"answer\":\"NCEES periodically revises and updates the handbook, and errata can be reported through the NCEES.org chat feature; errors that affect an exam question do not penalize examinees.\"}]","Reference Handbook - 9.5 - Version for Computer-Based Testing | PDF",1789773987,738]
