Structural Steel Design Guide
(OP)
I'm taking the SE I this april and am wondering if any of you use any sort of published design guide for steel design. I have my text books from college and obviously the LRFD but it feels like these just arent efficient for use on this exam even if they're all tabbed out. Going at 6min per problem it feels like I'm bound to miss a requirement here or there.

I know they exist, but I don't personally know a single person who designs both. Heck, I'd probably still just ignore brides if I had it to do over again, and take my chances with not losing more than 10 pts on everything else. Would've worked the first time I took it.

Good luck!

Unfortunately, I dont think just knowing the basics will get you through anymore. There's some pretty detailed questions in a lot of the practice question materials i'm going through.
My friend who just took it in October said the 20% bridge designation was just a rough guide and in actuality for the October test was more along the lines of 35%. I hope it reverses for the April test.
If AASHTO werent $350 and 1000 pages long I wouldnt be as chapped about learning something I'll never be able to perform.
