Has anyone been able to access the Hammer and Hand Best Practices Manual? Each time I try it says that the website can’t be found. Additionally, I have seen that people say to read Architectural Graphic Standards Chapter 21, but my 12th edition book only goes up to chapter 16. Does anyone know the 12th edition equivalent to chapter 21?

  Hello Alexandra. I had the same question about the Graphic Standards, which I did not use a lot for the CE. I ended up using Chapters 10, 11 14, 18 of Building Codes Illustarted; chapter 1, 2, 3, 5,6,7,10 of Building Constuction Illustrated; Chapters 2, 4, 5,6,13,16,19,20 of Fundamentals of Building Construction Materials and Methods. Hammer and Hand 's website was good, but you can cover the same topics of sitework, foundations, thermal and moisture control and exterior wall construction details with earlier described sources.

  thanks for the response Iuliia! Did you read all of those chapters as a whole for CE? Or just select passages?

  Yes, I read these chapters to get a general idea because I have a limited CD experience. I think these books are useful for the rest of exams too.

  Hi Alexandra,

  I also had trouble accessing Hammer & Hand's website around the time you created this post. It seems that the website is back up now! Not sure how long it's been back up since I just checked today. Just thought I'd let you know in case you haven't checked yet.
