Q: 18
Your consulting firm has recently been hired to complete a site survey for a company desiring an indoor coverage WI-AN. Your engineers use predictive design software for the task, but the company insists on a pre-design site visit. What task should be performed as part of the pre-design visit to prepare for a predictive design?

Option D-seen similar on practice tests and in the official study guide. Pre-design is mostly about checking building materials and floor plans before using predictive tools.
Wouldn’t C also matter if the site has unique RF challenges? Some environments might need test antennas even in the pre-design phase.
Doesn’t B also count for prep work? Security requirements sometimes affect where APs go, especially with compliance in mind. Maybe not as critical as checking floor plans, but still relevant before the actual predictive design step?
B, not D
D , that's the main thing for predictive-need to know building materials and that the floor plan matches reality before modeling.
Saw exactly similar question in my exam-D is what they went for in the official answer key. Always need to verify building structure and floor plan before you trust any predictive software, I think. Agree?
C/D? Sometimes antenna testing helps if materials surprise you, but floor plan checks are always needed.
D
D imo, since you need to check actual building materials and make sure the floor plans match what’s really there. Had something like this in a mock exam and validating the physical environment was key for predictive tools to work right. Rest seem more for active surveys or later stages.
