Mathematics

Khan, MIT, textbooks. We do not run a maths degree.

Study notes. Not a certificate. Not a licence. Not NEBOSH, PESO, ISEE, or IDE. We never design the charge, spacing, or the cut. Site hours and statutory papers have no video substitute.

Algebra, units, dimensional analysis. Dimensional analysis is the single highest-value habit here — it catches most engineering blunders for free.

Trigonometry and geometry (bearings, slopes, arcs — you will use this constantly for cut arcs and fall corridors).
