Anyone got any good tips plssss (especially how to score well on maths sections cause I suck)

Use View attachment 44706 for area of a circle since 95% of the time they are going to give diameters and not radius

Most of the time if they give you a number in the question expect to use it to work out the answer (or it may lead you to a easier working)

Write any relevant working down, that includes the formulas in the first line and free body diagrams. Also helpful to write the values given in the question matching the variable it goes into at the side to make it clear (you are also giving relevant working so that's probably 1 mark)

Use SI units

If they didnt give any lengths for truss questions assume each side is one unit (more common for equilateral triangle ones)

yes agreed also make sure youre using the same measurements, KG M N and make sure if they ask specific for mpa or something then convert pa to mpa and the measurements they give u will be in mm unless said otherwise (like stress questions gonna be given to u in mm)

Tips for truss analysis?

if u need ill take pics of some truss questions ive done and send them to u thatway u kinda see how to do it or somehting idk theres this guy on youtube who explains the math stuff really well @EurekaEngineeringHSC on youtube go watch his stuff

just learn the formulas and if there any no measurements shown e,g m always assume its mm. MPA AND GPA understand those units and overall if ur bad at maths there's still time just practice
