The Hamburg Abitur Vocational Technology - independent engineering foundations study guide has 6 sections and about 3,377 words.
01Statics, strength and mechanical transmission
This foundations field asks for free-body diagrams, support reactions, stress calculations in bars and beams, and the kinematics of mechanisms. It is the block where a sign error or a missing reaction costs the most marks, because the whole exercise follows from it.
555 words, about 3 min02Building systems, load paths, heat and moisture
Building Materials and Their Properties tests whether you can select a material for a job and justify it with properties and simple numbers. The exam expects strength, durability, thermal behaviour, workability and specification.
1,025 words, about 5 min03Measurement, feedback, PLC and automation
This domain tests whether you can describe a control loop, choose a sensor from its specifications, explain what a PLC does in each scan and justify a robot morphology. Expect questions on sensor characteristics, PID behaviour, PLC I/O and degrees of freedom.
489 words, about 2 min04Energy, thermal machines and environmental assessment
This domain asks you to compare energy sources, apply conversion efficiencies with correct units and assess sustainability. Typical items are a hydraulic or wind power calculation, a thermal efficiency question and a comment on the environmental impact of the energy mix.
429 words, about 2 min05Aerodynamic forces and elementary stability models
Elementary flight-technology analysis distinguishes lift, drag, weight and thrust. Lift and drag are aerodynamic force components defined relative to the airflow, not simply permanent vertical and horizontal labels on a page.
424 words, about 2 min06Engineering models, drawings, evidence and project decisions
Engineering reasoning starts with a purpose, a system boundary and the assumptions that permit a calculation. A free-body diagram, circuit diagram, energy-flow model and process chart represent different relationships.
