11/15/2021

0 Comments

 
Picture
You are a consulting engineer responsible for fire alarm.
​​Your task is to determine whether a fire alarm system is necessary for a building.

Just as in the real wor​ld...
  • You're expected (and encouraged) to make good use of all resources available to you.
  • You're not only judged by getting the right answer, but also by how effective & efficient you are.
  • That said, it's better to be a little less effective than to be wrong.
  • If you don't know, ask.
  • You're not always given all the information you need.
  • It's better to ask for help than to assume and be wrong.
  • Some mistakes hurt, others not as much. The pain level of a mistake is not always in our control.
  • People are not always perfect. Always consider your sources.
  • Try your best, and forget the rest.
  • If you cheat, you only cheat yourself. This simulation is designed to hone your skill, not your ability to copy someone else's results. Don't cheat yourself. Besides, we have cheat traps. That's all we'll say...
