Sample text from "Building Design and Construction Systems (BDCS) ARE Mock Exam(Architect Registration Exam)":
Â
Â·"Since we do have an area of refugeÂ for this vignette, the stair width needs to beat least 56" or 1422 (48" or 1219 CLEAR because of the area of refuge, plus an 8" or 203 allowance for handrailsÂ on both sides)...
Â
Note: NCARBthrows in the 44" (1118) minimum stair width requirement at the beginning of the program, and place the 48" (1219) CLEAR stair width requirement because ofthe area of refugeÂ at the end of the program. This is to make sure you can coordinate various criteria, and make sure you are patient enough to read the entire program."
Â
... Note: There is a defect with the gutter command of the NCARB's oftware. Once you place it, it is almost impossible to modify it. There are two ways to solve this problem...ArchiteG, ARE Mock Exam, Green Associate Exam Guide, GA Study, and GreenExamEducation are registered trademarks owned by Gang Chen.
