Open Book Test

The Oklahoma Roofing Contractor Commercial Endorsement examination is an open-book test. The Oklahoma Roofing Business and Law examination is also open book. Candidates may use approved references while following the applicable PSI requirements for examination materials.

Approved reference materials may be highlighted, underlined, and indexed before testing. Permanent tabs are permitted. Temporary removable tabs such as Post-it notes are not allowed. Candidate-added writing is not permitted in references before or during the examination session.

The technical examination uses the Architectural Sheet Metal Manual, 2012; International Building Code, 2018 with Oklahoma revisions; NRCA Roofing Manual: Membrane Roofing Systems, 2023; NRCA Roofing Manual: Metal Panel and SPF Roof Systems, 2024; NRCA Roofing Manual: Steep Slope Roof Systems, 2025; NRCA Roofing Manual: Architectural Metal Flashing, Condensation and Air Leakage Control, and Reroofing, 2022; and Code of Federal Regulations - 29 CFR Part 1926 (OSHA) with the latest available amendments.

The 2025 edition of the NRCA Roofing Manual: Steep Slope Roof Systems is the current permitted edition for testing. Candidates should prepare with the current permitted reference rather than the discontinued 2021 examination edition.

Open-book testing rewards familiarity with the reference library. Candidates should practice determining which manual applies to a question, locating the relevant section or detail, and interpreting the information efficiently rather than searching multiple books from beginning to end.

State Requirements

Oklahoma roofing contractors are required to obtain a valid roofing contractor registration unless an applicable exemption applies. Contractors performing commercial roofing work must also obtain the Commercial Endorsement required for that work.

A roofing contractor registration in good standing is required before a Commercial Endorsement can be approved. The Commercial Endorsement is an additional qualification and does not replace the underlying roofing contractor registration.

Commercial roofing contractors must provide evidence of at least $1,000,000 in commercial general liability insurance. Applicable workers' compensation compliance or qualifying exemption documentation is also required.

The roofing contractor registration and Commercial Endorsement are renewed annually. Contractors should keep their registration, endorsement, insurance, and other compliance documentation current while conducting roofing operations in Oklahoma.

Qualifying parties performing commercial roofing work are subject to continuing-education requirements. Oklahoma requires four hours of approved commercial roofing continuing education every 36 months after the applicable initial exemption period following passage of the endorsement examination.

The 1 Package includes Contractor Compliance Guidance to assist customers in understanding ongoing requirements associated with Oklahoma roofing registration and Commercial Endorsement operations.

Test Information and Study Materials

Prioritize low-slope roofing. Low Slope Roofing contains 15 of the 50 technical questions, making membrane roofing systems and commercial low-slope applications a major study priority.

Study architectural metal and flashing. Nine questions address metal roofing systems and sheet metal flashing. Regular practice with SMACNA and NRCA details can help candidates identify the proper reference quickly.

Review repairs and reroofing. Study existing roof conditions, repair methods, compatibility, reroofing practices, and factors affecting roof recovery and replacement.

Prepare for safety. Review fall protection, ladders, scaffolds, PPE, material handling, and other OSHA construction requirements relevant to commercial roofing work.

Study Business and Law separately. Dedicate focused study time to estimating, project management, contracts, financial topics, personnel, workers' compensation, risk management, payroll, liens, and licensing requirements.

Practice reference navigation. Candidates have 150 minutes for 50 Commercial Endorsement questions. Repeated practice with the highlighted and tabbed reference library can help develop a faster, more organized approach to open-book questions.
