Book Reviews of The Codes Guidebook for Interiors
Book Review: Must Read!
Summary: 4 Stars
I have really enjoyed "The Codes Guidebook for Interiors" - both the textbook and the workbook. I am using it to study for the NCIDQ exam and expect that this will make a significant impact on my test grade as it relates to codes. It's well written and easy to understand, especially when you couple the textbook with the guidebook. Good graphics for us visual learners! Additionally, it enables you to test yourself to see if you have clearly understood the material with real problems for you to solve. An explanation of the correct solutions are provided as well, which is helpful in clarifying at times why an answer is a better choice. My only complaint is that a few of the questions are ambiguous, but it does lead you to dig further which is not all bad.Book Review: This edition has been revised, updated and expanded to include many changes and more detailed coverage
Summary: 5 Stars
The fourth updated edition of Sharon Koomen Harmon, IIDA and AIA Katherine E. Kennon's THE CODES GUIDEBOOK FOR INTERIORS is a 'must' for any in-depth architecture or design reference library. It's the only guide devoted exclusively to codes relating to interiors alone, and explains all standards, federal regulations, maintenance of commercial and residential interiors alike, and more. This edition has been revised, updated and expanded to include many changes and more detailed coverage.

Book Review: Great book for your library
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is an invaluable resource for any designer who can't get their hands on a copy of the IBC. I used this for studying the NCIDQ and also when I needed to find something quicker than going to the IBC. The information and tables comes from the IBC but you should always reference the IBC to make sure the information has not been changed.
Great book. I used the previous edition in college and had everything tabbed because I used is so much.
Book Review: Good book to help understand IBC code book
Summary: 4 Stars
This book really helped make some of the tables in the IBC code book more understandable. However, some of the examples in the book lead to more confusion in class than they helped (mostly because the "mistakes" made were likely deliberate, but too little accompanying discussion was given to explain where the mistake was).Book Review: TOOK FOREVER TO GET HERE
Summary: 2 Stars
I ordered this on April 7 and didnt even receieve it until May 7th! thats an entire month later, RIDICULOUS. and I Needed it for a class that i eventually dropped and forgot i even bought the book for.
