Submit
38. _____are the continuous spread footings of foundation walls.

Explanation

Strip footings are the continuous spread footings of foundation walls. They are long and narrow footings that are used to support a load-bearing wall or a row of closely spaced columns. Strip footings distribute the load from the wall or columns evenly along their length, providing stability and preventing settlement. They are commonly used in residential and commercial construction where the load-bearing walls are parallel to each other. Strip footings are cost-effective and efficient in transferring the load to the underlying soil, making them a suitable choice for many construction projects.

Submit
39. A process which employs an electric arc, wherein energy in the form of heat is supplied by establishing an arc between the base or parent metal and a metal electrode.

Explanation

Fusion welding is the correct answer because it involves the use of an electric arc to generate heat and melt the base metal and the metal electrode. This process creates a fusion between the two metals, resulting in a strong and durable weld. Groove welding, coated electrodes, and electrode welding are not as accurate because they do not specifically describe the use of an electric arc and the fusion of metals.

Submit
40. Serves as a tensile reinforcement for the concrete slab to which it is bonded with embossed rib pattern.

Explanation

Composite decking serves as a tensile reinforcement for the concrete slab due to its ability to bond with the slab using an embossed rib pattern. The embossed rib pattern provides additional strength and stability to the concrete slab, making it a suitable choice for construction projects.

Submit
41. These are piles usually moulded in a yard or at the site allowed to cure for 4 week before using.   

Explanation

Pre-cast piles are piles that are made in a yard or at the site and allowed to cure for 4 weeks before being used. This means that they are manufactured ahead of time and then transported to the construction site. This method allows for better quality control and ensures that the piles are fully cured and ready to be used when they are needed. It also allows for faster construction as the pre-cast piles can be installed immediately without the need for curing time on-site.

Submit
42. Identify the figure

Explanation

A rotary hammer is a power tool used for drilling and chiseling hard materials such as concrete, stone, or masonry. It is different from a regular hammer drill as it has a special mechanism that provides a hammering action in addition to the rotary motion. This allows it to deliver more powerful blows, making it suitable for heavy-duty tasks like drilling large holes or breaking up concrete. Therefore, the correct answer is Rotary Hammer.

Submit
43. A large shoveling machine that can scoop or deposit a large amount of material.

Explanation

A front end loader is a large shoveling machine that is designed to scoop or deposit a large amount of material. It is commonly used in construction and mining industries for tasks such as loading and unloading materials, digging, and leveling surfaces. The front end loader has a bucket attached to the front of the machine, which can be raised or lowered to scoop up or dump material. It is a versatile and powerful machine that is able to handle heavy loads and is commonly seen on construction sites.

Submit
44. Identify the figure

Explanation

The figure in question is a concrete cutter (Wet). This tool is specifically designed for cutting through concrete and other hard materials. The term "wet" indicates that water is used during the cutting process to cool down the blade and minimize dust. This helps to prolong the life of the blade and prevent overheating. The other options listed, such as a concrete cutter (Dry), circular saw, and top handle jig saw, are not specifically designed for cutting through concrete and do not require the use of water during operation.

Submit
45. Identify the Figure

Explanation

The given options are different types of tools. A drywall screwdriver is used for driving screws into drywall, a reciprocating saw is used for cutting through various materials, a rotary drill hammer is used for drilling holes in hard surfaces, and a demolition hammer is used for breaking and demolishing structures. Therefore, the correct answer is Demolition Hammer, as it is the only tool specifically designed for demolition purposes.

Explanation

A backsaw is a special type of handsaw that has a very thin blade and is designed to make very straight cuts, particularly on trims and moldings. It is often used in woodworking and carpentry projects where precision and accuracy are required. The thin blade of a backsaw allows for more control and the ability to make fine, clean cuts.

Submit
50. A polyurethane product made by combining a polyisocyanete and a polyester resin.

Explanation

Formed-in place insulation refers to a type of insulation that is created on-site, typically by spraying or injecting a liquid foam material into the desired area. In this case, the polyurethane product made by combining a polyisocyanate and a polyester resin is used to create the formed-in place insulation. This type of insulation is versatile and can be applied to various surfaces and structures, providing effective thermal and sound insulation properties. It is often used in construction and industrial applications to improve energy efficiency and reduce heat transfer.

Submit
51. This type of footing maybe used in place of a combined footing under the same condition. Footings of the interior and the exterior columns are connected by a tie beam.  

Explanation

A cantilevered footing may be used in place of a combined footing under the same condition when the footings of the interior and exterior columns are connected by a tie beam. A cantilevered footing is a type of footing that extends beyond the column it supports, providing additional stability and support. This design allows for the transfer of load from the exterior column to the interior column through the tie beam, eliminating the need for a combined footing.

Submit
52. Identify the figure

Explanation

The given options are Rotary Drill, Demolition Hammer, Drywall Screw, and Reciprocating Screw. The correct answer is Drywall Screw. A drywall screw is a type of screw that is specifically designed for attaching drywall panels to wooden or metal frames. It has a sharp point and a coarse thread, which allows it to easily penetrate and secure the drywall. The other options, such as the rotary drill, demolition hammer, and reciprocating screw, are different tools used for various purposes and are not specifically designed for attaching drywall.

Submit
53. Of two four connected by batten plate spaced at intervals of 3 to 4 ft. these are used to support the light loads.

Explanation

Starred angles are the correct answer because they are commonly used to connect two four columns with a batten plate. These angles are spaced at intervals of 3 to 4 feet and are designed to support light loads. They provide stability and strength to the structure, making them suitable for this purpose.

Submit
54. Double reinforced beam use for long spans

Explanation

Corbels are used to support or strengthen a structure, typically in the form of a projection from a wall. They are commonly used to support beams in long spans, providing additional reinforcement and stability. Unlike cantilever beams, hollow box girders, or beams with compression reinforcement, corbels specifically serve the purpose of supporting beams in long spans. Therefore, corbels are the correct answer in this case.
