Book Bundle

Our suggested NASCLA Commercial Builder exam prep book bundle linked here uses 20 books that are allowed into the exam with the editions of each book listed. We have found the ACI 318-11 and Construction Project Management are not needed to find information on the exam, as the pertinent information discussed within these books is also found within the other 20 reference manuals. We also offer a pre-tabbed and highlighted version of the bundle, saving you countless hours of tabbing and highlighting the books yourself.

Don't waste time flipping through your books in the timed exam - our tabs help you to be able to quickly reference important material in your books and move on to the next question without wasting valuable time.
