NCARB PDD Exam Syllabus Topics:
TopicDetails
Topic 1
  • Construction Cost: This section of the exam measures the skills of Construction Managers and focuses on the financial side of project execution. It evaluates the ability to analyze construction cost estimates to confirm that they align with project design intent and budgetary constraints. Although this is the smallest section, it is critical for ensuring projects remain feasible and economically viable.
Topic 2
  • Codes & Regulations: This section of the exam measures skills of Building Code Specialists and examines how codes and regulations apply at a detailed level during documentation. Candidates are expected to demonstrate knowledge of compliance with the International Building Code (IBC) as well as other specialty regulations, as well as how to interpret and apply these standards to ensure design and documentation meet legal and safety requirements.
Topic 3
  • Construction Documentation: This section of the exam measures skills of Project Architects and addresses the creation and management of project documentation. Candidates are expected to demonstrate knowledge of documenting building design and site features, preparing detailed architectural drawings, and applying industry standards to produce a coordinated set of construction documents. The section also includes understanding how project changes impact documentation and how to communicate these updates effectively to both the design team and the client.:
Topic 4
  • Integration of Building Materials & Systems: This section of the exam measures the skills of Architectural Designers and focuses on the ability to resolve and integrate various building systems into cohesive project goals. It covers analyzing architectural systems and technologies, determining the size of structural, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems, and incorporating specialty systems such as acoustics, lighting, security, and communications. It also evaluates the ability to detail how multiple building systems work together and to coordinate across disciplines to achieve a unified design.
Topic 5
  • Project Manual & Specifications: This section of the exam measures the skills of Specifications Writers and emphasizes the importance of developing documentation that goes beyond drawings. Candidates must understand how to identify and prioritize elements needed to prepare, maintain, and refine both the project manual and project specifications. It also assesses the ability to align and coordinate these specifications with the construction documents to ensure consistency and accuracy.

NCARB ARE 5.0 Project Development and Documentation Exam Sample Questions (Q98-Q103):NEW QUESTION # 98
Which of the following documents should be coordinated in the design of a barrier-free building entrance?
  • A. Vertical elevations, hardware schedule, and electrical drawings
  • B. Door schedule, vertical elevations, and structural plans
  • C. Hardware schedule, electrical drawings, and sprinkler drawings
  • D. Door schedule, hardware schedule, and alarm system design
Answer: D
Explanation:
Designing a barrier-free (accessible) building entrance requires coordination among:
Door schedule: Door sizes, types, clearances, and thresholds
Hardware schedule: Handles, closers, locks, and accessibility hardware (e.g., lever handles, automatic operators) Alarm system design: To ensure audible and visual alarms meet ADA requirements for people with disabilities, particularly for emergency egress Other documents like electrical and structural plans are important but less directly related to barrier-free entrance compliance.

ADA Standards for Accessible Design

NEW QUESTION # 99
During plan review of an office building, the reviewer informs the architect of new regulations that require storage rooms greater than 150 sf be 1-hour fire rated. The proposed design has three 200 sf storage rooms that must meet the fire protection requirements. The architect needs to recommend how to meet this requirement with minimal effect on cost, time, and program.
  • A. Construct storage rooms using metal studs and Type X gypsum board.
  • B. Make six 100 sf storage rooms and redistribute throughout the building.
  • C. Construct storage rooms using rated concrete masonry.
  • D. Make four 150 sf storage rooms and redistribute throughout the building.
Answer: A
Explanation:
When new plan#review rules require 1-hour fire-resistance for storage rooms >150 sf, the least cost/time
/program impact is typically a 1-hour gypsum board assembly (metal studs with Type X on each side per UL
/GA listings).
A). CMU: durable but higher material and labor cost; heavier, slower to install.
C/D. Splitting rooms: Avoids the rating but disrupts program, adds doors/partitions, circulation, and can increase costs and complexity.

  • A. A101
  • B. A201
  • C. B101
  • D. G702
Answer: B
Explanation:
A201 is the General Conditions of the Contract for Construction and outlines duties, rights, and responsibilities of the contractor. This includes site supervision, safety, and conformance with documents.
ARE Handbook Objective 1.4 focuses on interpreting contract documents.

NEW QUESTION # 101
A family-owned apple farm in the Upper Midwest is taking advantage of a change in the local zoning code that added a new Agri-Tourism class in the existing farm zone. This allows the Owner to build a new facility on their existing site. The building will be open to the public and include a brewery, distillery, tap room, and market. The architect is ready to submit the drawings to the Owner for the 50% construction documents review.
To accommodate a compressed construction schedule, the Owner will be utilizing a design-build process. The Contractor has submitted the Pre-Engineered Metal Building (PEMB) shop drawings to the Architect for review, due to the lead time on this critical path item. Once construction begins, farming operations must be able to continue uninterrupted.
Key project information includes:
* Brewing and distilling will operate year-round.
* Brewery will initially include four fermenting tanks. Owner has requested space for at least two additional tanks. Potential expansion will be based on future sales.
* Distillery will produce 16% alcohol, which is classified as a flammable liquid. Fire separations are required.
* Tap Room is designed with seating for 300 people, not including exterior patio seating. It will have views to the working orchards and the historic buildings on site.
* Tap Room is scheduled to be open from August through November. Owner would like options to extend operating dates based on popularity.
* The Market area will feature local farm products and is not conditioned.
* Entire building will be fully sprinklered.
* Selected building materials are low-maintenance, as requested by the Owner, for durability and to reflect the nature of a working farm.
* Mechanical and electrical systems will be hung from the building structure. These loads are included in PEMB shop drawings.
* Public water and sewer is not available at the Project Site.
* Occupancy sensors are included to reduce utility costs and achieve energy conservation requirements.
The following resources are available for your reference:
* Architectural Drawings, including plans, elevations, sections, and schedules
* Consultant Drawings, including structural, HVAC, power distribution, and plumbing
* PEMB Shop Drawings
* Design and Construction Schedule
* Specification Excerpts, showing relevant spec sections
* IBC and ADA Excerpts, showing relevant code and accessibility sections
* After reviewing the documents, the architect discovers a coordination issue in the corridor.

The owner is concerned about elevated noise levels in the Tap Room when fully occupied. The current design utilizes a 2 x 2 acoustic ceiling tile system installed above the fans. An acoustical engineer recommends noise mitigation through limiting reverberation time (RT) to 2.0 seconds or less in the space. This can be achieved by the provided ceiling material options and their corresponding area.
What should the architect recommend that will minimize additional project costs while providing the recommended acoustical solution?
  • A. Retain current ceiling cloud layout and a 2 x 2 acoustic ceiling tile system and add acoustical sound board above.
  • B. Revise design using only one ceiling cloud and cementitious wood fiber panel system (2" in thickness).
  • C. Retain current ceiling cloud layout and a 2 x 2 acoustic ceiling tile system but remove the fans.
  • D. Revise design using only one ceiling cloud and cementitious wood fiber panel system (1" in thickness).
Answer: A
Explanation:
1. Problem Summary
* Goal: Reduce reverberation time (RT) in the Tap Room to 2.0 seconds or less.
* Current design: 2' x 2' acoustic ceiling tile system (RT = 2.0 seconds) installed above fans.
* Constraint: Minimize additional project cost.
* Recommendation from acoustical engineer: Use materials to achieve target RT without redesigning the space.
2. Review of Table Data

3. Interpretation of RT Values
* Current 2x2 Acoustic Ceiling Tile: RT = 2.0 seconds # meets the target exactly.
* However, fans may reduce the acoustic performance by reflecting or scattering sound, so supplemental absorption may be needed.
* Adding Acoustical Sound Board (RT = 1.6) above the existing tile system will improve absorption and lower RT below 2.0 seconds.
4. Cost & Constructability
* Retaining the current ceiling layout and simply adding a layer above is:
* Least disruptive to current design.
* Avoids redesign of the ceiling cloud layout.
* Minimizes schedule impact (critical for design-build with compressed schedule).
* Replacing with wood fiber panels (1" or 2") would require removal of existing tile, redesign of suspension, and higher cost/SF.
5. Why Other Options Are Incorrect
* A. Remove fans: This addresses air movement, not RT. Removing them does not guarantee RT improvement and conflicts with HVAC design intent.
* B. One cloud + 1" wood fiber panels: Reduces coverage area and may not meet RT goal; also costly and disruptive.
* C. One cloud + 2" wood fiber panels: Even more costly, same redesign problem as B.
* D. Retain tiles and add sound board above: Achieves RT < 2.0, minimal disruption, cost-effective vs.
full replacement # best option.

The owner requests that the metal panel skin be changed to EIFS.
Which of the following architectural sheets require changes to the notes and/or details? Check the three that apply.
  • A. A-04
  • B. A-06
  • C. A-00
  • D. A-02
  • E. A-07
  • F. A-03
Answer: B,E,F
Explanation:
Elevations (A-03): material callouts, notes, and textures for every façade.
Wall sections (A-06): assembly build-ups change (continuous insulation, drainage plane, WRB, attachment to PEMB girts, control joints, weeps, and terminations).
Details (A-07): heads/sills/jambs, base of wall/grade, parapet, expansion and control joints, and transition flashing details must be revised for EIFS.
Sheets like A-00 (cover) or A-02 (plans) generally don't carry the envelope system specifics and would not need detail changes for a cladding swap.
PDD refs: Drawings coordination-plans vs. elevations vs. sections/details; Division 07 EIFS system requirements; PEMB cladding interfaces.
