They are senior engineers and professors with deep expertise in this field, coming from various institutions such as the Beijing Architectural Design and Research Institute, Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture, Beijing University of Technology, Beijing Jiaotong University, Renmin University of China, Tsinghua University Architectural Design Institute, and the former Beijing Municipal Planning and Administrative Bureau. Based on the examination syllabus and current codes and standards, the authors have written this set of examination guidance materials to guide students' review.

It includes nearly 3,000 multiple-choice questions, each with an answer and solution hint.
