Even if there is no specific industry standard that is trying to be met, you can still specify a reference spec? Isn’t the desire for low VOC a desired “performance?”

Hi From Dallas

Hi from Minnesota

Wanted to say hello from Pittsburgh, PA! I am brand new to the community and look forward to participating.

For this exam in particular, do you recommend taking a break during the test?

welcome! I’d suggest looking around at other posts in the division you’re studying to see if anyone is asking the same questions you may have while studying

Thank you!
