Though not all of PPI's products reflect the adopted editions of the new design standards, in most cases the principles change very little. While specific procedures, equations, or values may change gradually from one edition of a design or reference standard to the next, PPI s books continue to provide an appropriate overview of the concepts presented, and will prepare you for the upcoming exams.
