How it is graded
  • Problem & requirements15

    Loads, constraints, standards and success criteria are written down before the design starts.

  • Calculations & analysis30

    Hand calculations or simulation set out step by step with units, assumptions and a check against a second method or code limit.

  • Design output20

    Drawings, models, schematics or code that match the calculations and could be handed to the next person.

  • Validation & files15

    Test data, simulation files, calculation sheets or photos attached, with what each one shows.

  • Report & judgement20

    A clear report that states the result, its limits, cost or risk, and what you would change next.
