I spent a while looking for a good book to help me study for the civil specific (afternoon) portion of the FE and this appeared to be the best option. Yes it is a small book approx 1/4 inch thick but it is better than nothing. It has approx 10 sample question for each topic in the afternoon exam with worked solutions. Then it has 2 practice afternoon exams with answers.
The answer solutions could be more thorough, and having spent a while out of school, it can take some decoding to figure out how the question should be answered. It does not contain any principles or narratives in the topics, it is only questions and answers, but doing questions is a big part of studying for the FE. I have used this book in combination with the Lindeburg book for the morning exam - which can offer some insight into how to solve the topics that appear in both the morning and afternoon exams.
In the absence of anything else i recommend this.

I see many reviews complaining about this book. Yes it's a bit short, and there could be more examples in it. In the book, there are 7-8 questions for each discipline area of civil worked out followed by 2 practice tests which include 30 questions each. To me this was better than nothing since many of the FE Civil books are lacking even this many questions. When I purchased this, I also bought the FE Civil review book by the NCEES (the guys who write the test). Their review book for civil contained only ~30 problems with terrible explanations.
I recommend buying this book because as of right now, it's the best civil book there is and it helped me pass the test so I believe it will help you as well.
