| Re: TNPSC Combined Engineering Services Examination Exam Pattern
TNPSC or Tamil Nadu Public Service Commission conducts Combined Engineering Services Examination for recruitment of Assistant Engineer and Assistant Director in various Tamil Nadu State Services. Engineering Degree in relevant discipline is the minimum educational qualification to apply for this examination. As you asking here I am telling you aboutTamil Nadu Public Service Commission’s Combined Engineering Services Exam Pattern , this will be conducted in objective type, consists of two papers. Paper I will have the subjects in the relevant discipline of engineering, time duration will be 3 hours and paper II will have questions on General Studies, time duration will be 2 hours. Exam pattern  TNPSC combined engineering services examination syllabus PAPER-I Code No: 029 UNIT I CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS Engineering Properties uses and tests for stones and bricks lime - sources, types and properties - cement - composition, tests, specifications, properties - types of cements and admixtures.
