This package is designed for candidates who want the required books for study without purchasing the entire reference library outright. The Nevada B-6 Commercial Remodeling classification focuses on remodeling and improvement of qualifying interior commercial spaces. Exam preparation covers drywall and finishes, tile, thermal and moisture protection, safety, plan reading and estimating, carpentry, doors and windows, concrete, masonry, metals, and applicable building-code requirements. The exam-room-approved references included in this rental package are the **International Building Code, 2012**, **ACI 318-14: Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete and Commentary**, and **ACI 530/530.1-13: Building Code Requirements and Specification for Masonry Structures and Companion Commentaries**. The package also includes technical study references covering OSHA safety, gypsum construction, masonry, tile installation, flooring, and concrete construction, along with the **Construction Business and Law Manual for Nevada** for Nevada contractor management preparation. **All books are highlighted and tabbed** to support organized study and more efficient reference navigation. The highlighted and tabbed exam-room references can help candidates become familiar with important sections before test day, while the study-only books provide broader technical preparation for subjects that must be understood without having those books available during the trade examination. ## What You Get - **Rental Books:** International Building Code, 2012; ACI 318-14; ACI 530/530.1-13; OSHA 29 CFR Part 1926; Gypsum Construction Handbook, 7th edition; Modern Masonry, 10th edition; ANSI A108/A118/A136.1:2017; Builders Guide to Floors, 1997; Setting Tile, 1995; Handbook for Ceramic, Glass, and Stone Tile Installation, 2017; The Contractor's Guide to Quality Concrete Construction - 4th Edition; and Construction Business and Law Manual for Nevada. - **Highlighted & Tabbed Books:** All books included in this rental package are highlighted and tabbed. - **Course Access:** 6 months of course access. - **Package Price:** $1,935. - **Refundable Deposit:** $1,000. - **Total Due:** $2,935. **Please allow up to 15 business days for book & course rental package orders.** ## Exam Details The Nevada B-6 Commercial Remodeling Contractor trade examination is administered through PSI for candidates authorized to test through the Nevada State Contractors Board. - **Exam:** Nevada B-6 Commercial Remodeling Contractor - **Testing Provider:** PSI - **Number of Questions:** 80 - **Time Allowed:** 3 hours - **Minimum Passing Score:** 56 correct answers The examination is divided into the following subject areas: - **Concrete:** 4 questions - **Masonry:** 4 questions - **Metals:** 3 questions - **Carpentry:** 7 questions - **Thermal and Moisture Protection:** 10 questions - **Doors and Windows:** 5 questions - **Drywall and Finishes:** 17 questions - **Tile:** 10 questions - **Safety:** 10 questions - **Plan Reading and Estimating:** 10 questions **Drywall and Finishes** is the largest individual exam category with 17 questions.

These categories represent a major portion of the examination and should receive significant study time. **Carpentry** accounts for seven questions, while **Doors and Windows** accounts for five. **Concrete** and **Masonry** each contain four questions, and **Metals** contains three. The broad exam structure makes organized preparation especially useful. Candidates should divide their study time according to exam weighting while still reviewing all categories. ## Open Book Test The Nevada B-6 Commercial Remodeling trade examination is an **open-book test** with specific approved references permitted in the examination room. The exam-room-approved rental books included in this package are: - **International Building Code, 2012** - **ACI 318-14: Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete and Commentary** - **ACI 530/530.1-13: Building Code Requirements and Specification for Masonry Structures and Companion Commentaries** The approved exam-room books are highlighted and tabbed to support faster navigation.

The **International Building Code, 2012** supports preparation involving occupancy, construction types, means of egress, fire-resistant construction, accessibility, interior finishes, and other commercial building requirements. **ACI 318-14** supports concrete-related preparation involving materials, reinforcement, structural concrete requirements, and construction provisions. **ACI 530/530.1-13** supports masonry-related preparation involving structural masonry, materials, reinforcement, specifications, and construction requirements.

Candidates should develop enough familiarity with their subject matter to answer related questions without having the books available inside the trade examination. ## Licensing Steps The Nevada State Contractors Board regulates the B-6 Commercial Remodeling classification. Passing the B-6 trade examination is one part of the complete contractor licensing process. 1. **Confirm the B-6 classification.** Determine that Commercial Remodeling matches the type of contracting work the business intends to perform. 2. **Identify the qualifying individual.** Designate the person who will satisfy applicable experience and examination requirements. 3. **Document qualifying experience.** Prepare records describing relevant commercial remodeling work, project responsibilities, supervision, materials, and trades. 4. **Prepare the Nevada contractor license application.** Gather business information, qualifier information, experience documentation, financial information, and required supporting materials. 5. **Submit the application.** The Nevada State Contractors Board reviews the applicant's qualifications before examination eligibility is established. 6. **Complete applicable background requirements.** Follow required disclosure, fingerprint, and background procedures. 7. **Meet financial responsibility requirements.** Provide applicable financial information required during the Nevada licensing process. 8. **Receive examination eligibility.** Candidates who must test can proceed with scheduling after authorization. 9. **Schedule the B-6 examination through PSI.** Arrange the Commercial Remodeling trade examination after eligibility has been established. 10. **Prepare for the trade exam.** Study drywall, finishes, tile, moisture protection, safety, plan reading, estimating, carpentry, concrete, masonry, metals, doors, windows, and code navigation. 11. **Prepare for Nevada contractor management requirements.** Use the included Construction Business and Law Manual for Nevada as part of business and law preparation. 12. **Complete required examinations.** Satisfy applicable trade and management testing requirements unless an approved waiver applies. 13. **Complete remaining licensing requirements.** Address applicable bonding, financial responsibility, background, and other Nevada State Contractors Board requirements. ## State Requirements The Nevada B-6 Commercial Remodeling subclassification authorizes remodeling and improvement of qualifying interior spaces in structures that support, shelter, or enclose persons, animals, or other property. The classification includes important limitations. A B-6 contractor is not authorized under this classification to install, remove, or modify structural members, mechanical systems, fire protection systems, or other life-safety systems. The limitations matter in both exam preparation and actual contracting work. Commercial remodeling can involve many interior trades, but work that crosses into structural or life-safety systems may require an appropriately licensed contractor or specialty trade. Typical knowledge areas include drywall, finishes, tile, moisture protection, doors, windows, carpentry, metals, concrete, masonry, plan reading, and estimating. Candidates should understand how these materials and systems interact within a commercial remodeling project. For the standard Nevada licensing pathway, the qualifying individual generally must document at least four years of qualifying experience within the applicable experience period required by the Nevada State Contractors Board. Passing the B-6 trade examination does not automatically issue a Nevada contractor license. Applicants must also satisfy applicable experience, management qualification, financial responsibility, bonding, background, and other licensing requirements. ## Reference Books - **Included Rental Book: International Building Code, 2012** Highlighted and tabbed exam-room-approved reference covering commercial building requirements, occupancy, egress, fire-resistance, accessibility, interior finishes, construction types, and related building-code topics. - **Included Rental Book: ACI 318-14: Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete and Commentary** Highlighted and tabbed exam-room-approved reference supporting preparation involving concrete materials, reinforcement, structural concrete requirements, and construction provisions. - **Included Rental Book: ACI 530/530.1-13: Building Code Requirements and Specification for Masonry Structures and Companion Commentaries** Highlighted and tabbed exam-room-approved reference supporting masonry materials, reinforcement, structural requirements, construction provisions, and specifications. - **Included Rental Book: Code of Federal Regulations - 29 CFR Part 1926 (OSHA)** Highlighted and tabbed study reference covering construction safety, fall protection, personal protective equipment, ladders, scaffolds, tools, and jobsite hazards.

Drywall and Finishes deserves significant attention because it is the largest section, while Tile, Safety, Thermal and Moisture Protection, and Plan Reading and Estimating are also major categories. **Prioritize drywall and finishes.** Review gypsum systems, interior walls and ceilings, finishing methods, materials, and installation practices. **Study tile installation.** Review substrates, materials, setting systems, layout, joint considerations, and ceramic, glass, and stone tile methods. **Prepare for safety.** Use the included OSHA reference to study personal protective equipment, fall protection, ladders, scaffolds, tools, and common construction hazards. **Practice plan reading and estimating.** Candidates should be comfortable interpreting plans, dimensions, quantities, materials, and basic estimating information. **Review concrete and masonry.** Use the study-only technical references to build knowledge while practicing navigation in the approved ACI exam-room references. **Practice code navigation.** Become familiar with the highlighted and tabbed International Building Code, ACI 318-14, and ACI 530/530.1-13 so the organization of each reference is familiar before exam day. **Use timed practice.** With 80 questions and three hours available, candidates should develop a steady pace and avoid spending excessive time on individual reference lookups. **Use your 6 months of course access strategically.** Organize study by exam category, review weaker areas, practice reference navigation, and return to difficult subjects throughout the preparation period. ## How Pass Your Nevada Contractor Exam Helps You Reach Your Goal Pass Your Nevada Contractor Exam supports Nevada B-6 Commercial Remodeling Contractor candidates through organized study guidance, trade-focused review, practice-oriented preparation, reference navigation, and confidence-building study structure.
