How to pass Plating and Structural Steel Drawing N2
Plating and Structural Steel Drawing N2 is marked as a drawing paper, so the way you revise for it matters as much as the hours you put in.
- Mark your own attempt against the memorandum with a ruler. Small errors in scale and centre lines are easy to miss by eye.
- Set up first, line in later. Lay out the views lightly, check the spacing and the scale, and only darken lines once the whole sheet is right.
- Convention carries marks on its own: first-angle projection symbols, line types, dimensioning and title block are marked whether or not the drawing is correct.
- Work to the clock per view. Candidates lose more marks by not finishing the last view than by drawing the first one imperfectly.
- Work through the papers on this page under exam conditions, then mark yourself honestly against the memorandum. Doing three papers properly beats skimming ten.
