    Firstly what are you predicting to come up?
    Stairs is lightly for the drawing i think,
    the uasual u-values,
    health and safty since it didnt come up in 09
    probably somthing on improving BER. insutation, efficiency stuff ect.

    concerning drawings, where did you get your drawings to start with which book or site? are you supposed to draw construction lines? how many marks are taken away if you dont draw to scale?

    any other question anyone can have...i might think of a few later..

    U values for definite anyway. You can find out about the breakdown of marks on examinations.ie if you download the marking scheme. I don't have a clue about any of the drawings! but hopefully i'll know them all before the exam :P

    all i know is that if you write "Scale 1:5" & do nothing else on your scaled drawing, you get 5marks..! :D

    Stairs/door detail/suspended timber floor/hearth and fireplace detail are all we were told to revise!! Site safety or wheelchair access should be up! U values come up every year and once you know the formulas they're really easy! Electricity, water and heat and sound insulation are always good to know too! That's the grand total of what I'm revising! :)

    Fire place came up in 08 and suspended floor came up in 09. good chance they wont come up.

    Our teacher has given us very little, and definitely nothing on safety or anything!
    Is there any way to get notes on safety of someone by email or something?! Please!! :-)
