Structural Layout Vignette and Multiple Choice

tested yesterd ay - "reference"

Hey all,

I sat for this test yesterday. I used my full 3.5 hours for the MC questions, as I spent a good amount of time on several "figure-it-out" questions. Otherwise, I felt there were at least 50ish pretty basic concept questions, and a good number of "eliminate the bad answer choices" questions.

I was surprised to find a "Reference" button at the top near the "Calculator" button. I don't know how I missed learning about that. All sorts of equations, definitions and steel manual pages behind that click.

Vignette seemed pretty straightforward and didn't require much time; although I hesitated for a while, debating whether to reduce an about 48' beam span, and also whether to add a beam under a wall at the roof.

Anyway...good luck to those yet to test. Only Building Systems remaining for me before the blackout.
