My goodness...I was just reading ur thread about Sutho ppl! I'm Sari's brother...I was in the year below u at Sutho?

Anyhow, we did truss analysis last year...a lot of it is pretty hard, but the hardest thing we've done is the short section on orthagonal drawing this year...having to change the projection of the lines to convert them to their true length and stuff...it's hell confusing...anyhow, GO ENGINEERING!!! YIPPEE!!!

Your Sari's brother? Wow, say hi from me.

True length wasn't in the syllubus when I did Engo, but maybe it is now? I know how to do it though, and I agree that it is v. hard ...

Yeah, we've moved on a bit from there, doing personal transport systems now, static friction and stuff...I'll probably have some more questions closer to half-yearlies, though, when I start studying...
