ARE 4.0 guidelines

An easily overlooked bit of information is on page 22 of the most recent ARE 4.0 Guidelines (July 2011 pdf available from this page). NCARB advises that in addition to ICC/ANSI A117.1-98 accessibility standards, candidates should be familiar with the following for EACH division:

ICC 2006 International Building Code, International Mechanical Code, International Plumbing Code

NFPA Life Safety Code NFPA101, National Electrical Code NFPA 70

NRC Canada National Building Code of Canada, National Plumbing Code of Canada, National Fire Code of Canada

AIA AIA Documents 2007

One may infer that each division can test from any of these codes and documents.  Ever wonder why you might face a question that seems really off-topic for the exam title and description?  Perhaps this is why.
