Just curious, what is in everyone's reference binder? The binder that you always refer too the most.

Right now mine is mainly piping specifications
When I did MEP work I had a binder full of equipment sizing charts (VAV, diffusers, AHU's) and heat load calculation go-bys

A piece of 2x4 that's sized so when I put it on the ground and stand on it, it exerts 2000 psf to the soil below. I use this to convince inspectors how conservative this soil bearing value is.
