Question 12 on Beth Lin Hartmann's Depth Practice Exam 1 asks about lead line factors for sheaves. Where can I find reliable information on sheave analysis? How probably will it be that there is a question on the exam dealing with sheaves?

Thank in advance!

 
Eric,

This would be a Lifting and Rigging Type Problem on the exam. If you are taking the Construction PM, there will at least 1 problem, maybe 2 on this overall topic. I would say out of those 2 questions, most likely (75%) it will not deal with sheaves. However, the tough part about studying for this exam is you never know what questions they will ask. So you have to prepare for everything. I found a pretty good pdf on this topic at, http://www.certex.com/assets/blocks-and-sheaves.pdf

Good luck on the exam.
