Do some modifications if you have any feeling for new production process, but what is the most important - do several time studies in next period. It can be even some simple method of time study, but will accelerate your feeling for new processes greatly.
In a few years this will probably be a great spot for study material. If you have a hard time keeping a schedule for studying I would recommend a study coarse in order to start early and keep on track studying. I also purchased the civil engineering PE flash cards for the iphone but they were absolutely useless for the exam. Best of luck!
The concept is a worker should be able to do this all day without getting worn out. Research "time study" and you can get info on the method & calculations. Available time is the quantity of minutes or hours that are available for useful work. Example for humans would be 8 hour per day less time off for lunch, breaks, meetings.
I am trying to model and optimize a piece of climbing equipment called a 'cam', but am struggling to get an accurately restrained study to solve. I have been able to do so by fixing a few small faces near where the points of contact would be, but that is not very accurate as the restrained...
Can anyone help me with a single phase short-circuit calculation as follows? It's a airport runway ILS job. We need to run single phase from a 250KVA 13.8KV-240/120v transformer to a 25KVA 240v-2400v step-up transformer, then about 4000' #6 single phase wire to 25kva 2400-120-240V step-down...
Some time studies break down into essential movements, i.e repositioning a piece, reaching for a part, picking up the torch, etc. These are typical for very high production work. If they consider "time for TIG welding" to be actual arc time, then you sit with a stopwatch and take the time only that the arc is lit.
Hello All! I am preparing to take the PE Civil Structural exam for the first time in October 2021. Please reply with what each of you used to study and pass the exam. I have found a lot of engineers who recommend the CERM book and NCEES Civil Structural Practice Exam book. I have also seen...
DO NOT look at it before you finish studying. After you have finished your study plan, block off a 9 hour period on the next Saturday and try to simulate the exam conditions as much as possible at work or somewhere. Give yourself 4 hours to take the morning session, an hour for lunch and 4 hours to take the afternoon session.
I'm new to this board and to SolidWorks Simulation. I did the static analysis tutorial, and that study worked perfectly. Then I tried a test I-beam to see, how the results of SW Simulation compared to regular non FEA calculations, but now I can't seem to get it to run the study. I tried with an...
I am currently a MS student and I recently passed my FE Exam, I’m thinking about just doing my PE Exam before school starts in September. I will just register with a state where the exam is decoupled. How much studying is required? Is 2 months of prep enough and also do you have any advice?
