Design Loads on Structures During Construction Description
This Standard provides minimum design load requirements during construction for buildings and other structures. It addresses partially completed structures and temporary structures used during construction. The loads specified are suitable for use either with strength design (such as USD and LRFD) or with allowable stress design (ASD) criteria. The loads are equally applicable to all conventional construction methods. Topics include loads and load combinations, dead and live loads, construction loads, lateral earth pressures, environmental loads, and performance and safety criteria. The basis of loads are probabilistic analysis, observation of construction practices, and expert opinions. Maximum, as well as arbitrary point-in-time values of loads are given.

This is listed as one of the references for the Construction session of the Civil PE Exam. I was very glad that I purchased and brought this, as there were a couple questions that I was only able to answer by having it with me.
As stated on the ASCE website, this standard "provides minimum design load requirements during construction for buildings and other structures. It addresses partially completed structures and temporary structures used during construction."

This is a necessary book. Short and sweet, but definitely required reference material for the Construction Engineer or Civil Engineerl.
