Standard testing information in PA exam
Hi:
I'll be taking my PA exam in 7 weeks. Does anybody know if the exam will ask specific information related to the standardized testing like ASTM or UL? My question is if we need to know that NFPA 257 is the specific test for windows and glass blocks or only to have a general idea of them.
Thanks in advance.

Celina,
I personally did not experience needing to know these standards whatsoever and spent zero time studying them. I would not recommend devoting your time on this. If by chance I'm wrong and on your test you get a question on this - it'll be one question, not two. Worth studying? My view is there's enough to study as it is, minutiae like this just complicates things.
If you know what ASTM and UL are and their purpose - good to go. That's my vote!
