Hello, I'm wondering if anyone has a solid recommendation/source for PPD Environmental Conditions and Context. I failed my last PPD exam and this was a weakness of mine.

  Have you taken PA by chance? PA and PPD overlap quite a bit when it comes to topics of environmental conditions. I would recommend two books: Sun, Light, Wind (it will teach you about solar exposures and generally climate), and Site Planning Design Handbook (it will teach you everything drainage related, soil related, etc.)

  Both MEEB and , Chang building construction illustrated have extensive site and environmental sections. I would check those out.
