    So Easy!!!
    Much easier than paper 1

    I did
    perspective - useally takes me an hour bu had it done in 30min lovely 45d lines. Very easy
    roads - Never liked roads nor sure if i got the bit between the acuet lines done correctly
    bore holes - easy and staight forward
    Hyperbola - never liked this Q prob my worst one
    Roofing - Simple out

    Very Happy with the paper i will be disappointed if i dont get an A

    She gave us an extra 20min again didn't need it though finished at 4:40

    90 out of 120 do td in our school and there will be alot of A's because of 2 excellet teachers

    For mining did anyone get sumthing similar to;dip=34,strike=66,thickness=19m.. Then part (b) the altitude = 57 then part (c) true angle = 42.. Think i got everything right except i had to spoof the hole part on the saddle roof how did ye all do this??

    Are we meant to state these measurements?



    Please tell me no.

    Nope just identify them but you use't have to state them before and we just do anyway.. Dont worry angel its over.....Deep breaths....

    i did roads in 23 minutes
    and had the bore holes+roads don in 45 mins.
    shadow and shade- went ok
    perspective- i made up some hights on the top hole cus i souldn't find it
    had 45 mins left so i did- hyperballooks prabbles.- never got the plane director - i think

    What do you expect? You said before that you were definetly going to leave after 30 minutes in both exams!

    Road

    Roof was amazing, they litterily told you what to do step by step,
    Road was grand, but there was one wierd bit at the upper left corner of the car park thingy, any one else get that??

    That's exactly what I did - roof was brilliant, none of that locus of the line of intersection stuff they've been throwing up recently.

    What do you mean "one weird bit" on road? If you mean a TINY bit of cut/fill (can't remember which) at the top-left corner then yeah I got that. My thing went off the page though, fortunately I had another sheet taped underneath so hopefully the examiner can line them up.

    What was the end elevation of the hyperbolic paraboloid supposed to look like? I think I got it but I left it till the end and was kinda pushed for time so it was a bit on the rough side. I think mine looked like the attachment here but I can't really remember...

    god your teachers chose some really bad, nasty questions... we covered five, the ones i answer are architectural perspective, roof geometry, shadow projection and shell structures. they're fairly standard, easy questions and i reckon i got at least an a2 on paper ii, it was a hell of a lot easier than paper i IMO.

    Well I've covered all and I'd say that roads, mining and roof are the shortest and easiest questions on the paper.

    i was really happy with that.. apart from my idiotic mistake of not finding the dihedral angle in roofs, it went pretty good

    took me an hour to get shell structures done.. i've only done about 3 of them before so i just had to work it out as i went along but its 100% right.

    for someone who didnt finish a sheet in 2 years, im over the moon.. i won an award for td in our school but was way too lazy to do anythin in it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,005 ✭✭✭sock.rocker*


    my idiotic mistake was not readin the question right.. :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,585 ✭✭✭honru


    Well I did both papers, only hoping for a pass at this stage. Paper 1 I was able to blab my way through. Paper 2 though was harder. One of the skew boreholes in Mining Geometry, which is my best question to answer, was north, and I didn't know what to do. Everything else wasn't great tbh.

    So I dunno, I hope that that was enough for me to scrape a pass. If ye all found the papers hard then hopefully that will work in my favour...

    On the other hand, no more ****ing Tech Drawing. Ever.

    Well i did my best but still couldn't do enough. Its crap having a teacher that has his favourites. In total he spent about 2 hours over the 3 years with me. (Dont TG) Suck but wasn't countin the subject anyways...best of luck with the rest of your exams people. ive 2 more
