Absolute Free Project-Planning-Design Exam Practice for Comprehensive Preparation 

Which of the following types of heating system would be appropriate when the design requires a very compact system that has a low initial cost, is easily zoned, and has a quick response to temperature changes?

Refer to the exhibit (urban commercial site sketch).

In the urban commercial site shown in the sketch, which is the most convenient location for a truck entrance and exit from the site? 

Refer to the exhibit (table showing energy embodied and annual energy demand for Type L and Type H walls). In the table, Type L wall is lightly insulated and Type H wall is heavily insulated. Approximately how many heating seasons would it take to recover the extra energy involved in selecting the Type H construction?

Which existing site elements are most important to locate in preparing a schematic design phase site plan for an adaptive reuse project?

Refer to the exhibit (residential floor plan with three outlined elevator core locations A, B, C). 

During design development, an owner has chosen an elevator that does not fit in the location previously selected for the two-car elevator core. The elevator core should be near the main entrance lobby and centrally located. The minimum program requirements for each residential floor are the following:

Five studios

Five 1-bed units
