South Carolina Residential Builder - Book Rental Package

The South Carolina Residential Builder Book Rental Package is designed for candidates preparing for the trade exam and the business & law exam required by the state’s Residential Builders Commission. This rental option includes a full set of highlighted and tabbed reference books (for example, the NASCLA Contractors Guide to Business, Law & Project Management – South Carolina Residential Builders, 8th Edition; the International Residential Code for One- and Two‑Family Dwellings, 2021 Edition; Carpentry and Building Construction (2016); The Contractor’s Guide to Quality Concrete Construction, 4th Edition; Modern Masonry – Brick, Block, Stone, 9th Edition; Gypsum Construction Handbook, 7th Edition; and the BCSI: Guide to Good Practice for Handling, Installing, Restraining, and Bracing of Metal Plate Connected Wood Trusses, 2025) — all pre-tabbed to facilitate rapid lookup in an open-book exam format. The package grants six-month online self-study access to trade and business modules, provides the books on a rental basis (with a refundable deposit if books are returned in good condition), and is intended to streamline navigation of key topics such as framing, foundations, masonry, roofing, code compliance, safety, and business-law principles aligned with the licensing exam’s scope.
