In this episode of ARE Live, a top podcast for architects, we’re bringing you a 3-in-1 Mock Exam! There are topics that span across multiple divisions of the ARE and one of those key concepts is site selection. If you’re studying for Project Planning and Design, Project Development and Documentation, or Programming and Analysis you won’t want to skip this episode, where we revisit five ARE 5.0 Practice Exam questions all about site selection with an expert architect.
We’ll discuss how to locate a building on a site taking topography, zoning regulations, and microclimate into consideration. We’ll also cover environmental impact studies, stormwater runoff, and more. These sample ARE 5.0 Practice Exam questions will help prepare you for PPD, PDD, and PA so that you can go into exam day with confidence in your ability to select a site based on criteria and zoning. To get the full visual experience for each question, you can watch the video on our website - just go to go.blackspectacles.com, then click "Resources", "ARE Live Podcast" to view!

ARE Live: Site Selection

In today’s episode, Mike Newman reviews the 10 questions & answers from our Programming, Planning & Practice Mock Exam.  You can download this mock exam and answer the questions yourself, and then listen in.  The questions will help you develop a strategy for how to study for the exam and some of the terms you’re going to see in this exam.

One thing to note, there is a lot of overlap between PPP and some of the other exam topics, you will notice that some of these questions could easily find themselves on other exams.  You may want to consider studying and taking this exam with Construction Documents & Services and Site Planning & Design- you will find that they are all about the same issues, just from different vantage points.
