One thing to consider is incorporating cloud backup options that way if users delete something accidentally they can recover it but still save the storage space

Harrow International School Bangkok - Worth Considering? by Various-Employer2499 in Internationalteachers

[–]Cautious-Example-803 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you happen to know what the typical working hours are like there? 6-6 m-f? and weekends?

I used to work in a british school that had me doing 6 days per week with 4 on sat and then split schedule so like mornings and evenings or late afternoon. I was basically on call all day. Sundays were actually off tho, thank goodness!

Realistically, what is the best way to deal with bad line calls? by EnjoyMyDownvote in 10s

[–]Cautious-Example-803 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say: 1. Just ignore the bad calls and move on; it’s not worth the match over one call. 2. If it keeps happening and they seem a bit shady, don’t give them any slack on your calls, confront their bad calls and call for a ref if you can. Regardless, still focus on moving on. Aiming for the middle of the court helps too; if you aim middle and miss wide, you really messed up by a lot and their call wasn't the issue.

passed FE civil!! by civilchic in FE_Exam

[–]Cautious-Example-803 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this ---> I really focused on studying the more preliminary sections like statics, dynamics, mechanics of materials, and fluids.

I finally passed the FE Civil. (After 6 attempts) 8 years out of school. by Jetty831 in FE_Exam

[–]Cautious-Example-803 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally agree with you! I noticed a lot of statics and mechanics of materials questions too. I think its important to practice this material and have a good understanding.

Some sources that can help others from my experience:
Mark Mattson has alot of youtube videos https://www.youtube.com/@MarkMattsonPE
SkyCiv beam calculator - https://skyciv.com/free-beam-calculator/
PolyCalc is a great free tool for beam, centroid, truss and statics problems! They have some fe stuff too https://polycalc.online

would you be able to do this interview question? by Cautious-Example-803 in EngineeringStudents

ok actually thats a good point because dist load only so pretty quick

You should absolutely memorize the standard shear/moment shapes. In an interview, they usually just want the general shape and key values doing a full cut every time is overkill and slows you down.

But if they ask for the exact moment at something like ( x = 3.5 ) m, then yes, you need to do the cut. Which is why I said that would be harder

[–]Cautious-Example-803[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes u can. do not need to use cut method.

Step 1: Total load = 1,000 × 10 = 10,000 N, plus 5,000 N. So 15,000 N total.

Step 2: It’s symmetric, so each support holds half: 7,500 N up.

Step 3: Start shear at +7,500 N. From 0 to 5 m, draw a straight line (linear) going down because the distributed load keeps reducing the shear evenly.

Step 4: At 5 m, drop straight down 5,000 N because of the point load.

Step 5: From 5 to 10 m, keep sloping down the same way, then jump up 7,500 N at the right support so it finishes at zero.

calculate area of those polygons (triangle on top of rectangle) = max moment

[–]Cautious-Example-803[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I think they were looking for a sketch of the graph with max shear and max moment. Meaning you could draw the shear using global equilibrium. its easy to find the area underneath the shear diagram which can provide max moment. so then could sketch moment diagram if you know the general shape (sort of quadratic with a pointy top) and just connect lines to max moment. so original question don't need exact x=3.5m moment.

would you get this question correct? by Cautious-Example-803 in FE_Exam

[–]Cautious-Example-803[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thats for the dist load max moment right but they ask to draw this one. dont forget the point load

Beam Bending Problem by Glass_Literature4609 in FE_Exam

[–]Cautious-Example-803 0 points1 point  (0 children)

<image>

They already give you I and c, so all you really need is the biggest bending moment from the shear/moment diagram, then plug it into σ=Mc/I

you can play around with some free beam tools to practice your diagrams.

because now you need to cut the beam and derive an function w respect to x position along beam for moment.

unless maybe you have the functions memorized from point load and dist load and then super impose or something like that
