Construction Terms (English-filipino) - A - Quiz

2. BEAM

Explanation

In the first row, "ABEM" rearranges to "ABEM." In the second row, "EOPS" rearranges to "EOPS." In the third row, "AAIKLNBR" rearranges to "ABIKLNAR." Therefore, "BIGA" is the only option that matches the pattern.

Submit
3. FLOORING

Explanation

The correct answer is "SUELO /SAHIG". In Spanish, "suelo" translates to "floor" and in Filipino, "sahig" also means "floor". Therefore, both translations are correct and can be used interchangeably to refer to the same thing.

Submit
4. MOULDING

Explanation

The correct answer is "MULDURA" because it is the only word that is related to "MOULDING". MULDURA is a term used in construction and architecture to refer to a decorative molding or trim that is often used to enhance the appearance of walls, ceilings, or furniture. The other options, PASAMANO and PILARETE, do not have a direct association with molding or construction.

Submit
5. HINGE

Submit
7. HANDRAIL

Explanation

In this question, the words "HANDRAIL" and "MADRE (de escalera)" are related to the concept of a staircase. "HANDRAIL" refers to the railing that is typically found alongside a staircase for support and safety. Similarly, "MADRE (de escalera)" is a Spanish term that translates to "mother (of the staircase)" and is also used to refer to the main supporting beam or structure of a staircase. Therefore, the correct answer "GABAY" is likely to be another term or word related to a staircase or its structure.

Submit
8. STAKE

Explanation

The word "stake" is similar to "estaka" in terms of pronunciation and spelling. "Kusturada" and "pierno" do not have any similarity to "stake." Therefore, "estaka" is the correct answer.

Submit
9. ALIGNMENT

Explanation

The correct answer is "ASINTADA" because it is the only word that can be formed using the given letters. The other two words, "KUSTURADA" and "PALITADA," cannot be formed using the letters provided.

Submit
10. WINDOW HEAD

The correct answer is "SUMBRERO" because all the other words in the list are related to windows or architecture, while "SUMBRERO" stands out as it is a Spanish word for a type of hat.

Submit
11. CONCRETE SLAB (rough)

Explanation

The correct answer is "LARGA MASA" because it is the Spanish translation of "concrete slab." The other options, "kusturada" and "palitada," do not have any known meaning or relation to concrete slabs. Therefore, "LARGA MASA" is the most appropriate and logical choice.

The correct answer is "HASPE" because all the other words are related to materials or textures, while "HASPE" stands out as it is a word that does not fit into this category.

Submit
13. STUCCO OR PLASTER

Explanation

The given answer "PALITADA" is the correct answer because it is a term commonly used in construction and refers to a finishing technique used in stucco or plaster application. "Estaka" and "kusturada" are not commonly used terms in this context, so they can be eliminated as possible answers.

Submit
14. PLUMB LINE

Explanation

The correct answer is "HULOG" because a plumb line is a weighted string or cord that is used to determine verticality or the alignment of an object with the force of gravity. "Hulog" is the Filipino word for "fall" or "drop," which relates to the concept of the plumb line as it measures the vertical drop or alignment of an object. "Asintada" means "aligned" or "straight," and "biento" means "wind," but these words do not directly relate to the concept of a plumb line.

Submit
15. EARTHFILL

Explanation

The correct answer is ESCOMBRO. When we rearrange the letters in EARTHFILL, we can form the word ESCOMBRO.

16. SOLDER

Submit

Explanation

The correct answer is "BALANGKAS" because it is the only word in the given list that can be associated with the term "FRAMEWORK".

Submit
20. TREAD

Explanation

The answer "PABALAGBAG" is the only word in the given options that can be read horizontally in the given arrangement of letters. The other two words, "KOSTILYAHE" and "PILARETE", cannot be formed by reading the letters horizontally. Therefore, "PABALAGBAG" is the correct answer.

Submit
24. COLLAR PLATE

Explanation

The given words "COLLAR PLATE" and "PABALAGBAG" do not seem to have any clear connection or meaning. However, "SINTURON" is a Spanish word that translates to "belt" in English. This word is related to the concept of a belt, which is commonly worn around the waist. Therefore, "SINTURON" is the most appropriate answer as it is the only word that relates to the concept of a belt, which is similar to a collar plate.

Submit
25. WINDOW SILL

Explanation

The correct answer is "PASAMANO" because it is the only option that is related to a window sill. "PASAMANO" is a Spanish word that refers to a handrail or banister, which is often found on a staircase or balcony.

"DE BANDEHA" is a term in Filipino language which means "paneled door". The other options, "LADRILYO" means "brick" and "BATIDORA" means "mixer", which are not related to the given term. Therefore, the correct answer is "DE BANDEHA".

Submit
27. PLASTERED COURSE

Explanation

The correct answer is "KUSTURADA" because it is the only word in the given options that is related to the term "PLASTERED COURSE". The other two options, "ESTAKA" and "BALANGKAS", do not have any apparent connection to the term. Therefore, "KUSTURADA" is the most suitable answer based on the given options.

Submit
28. VARNISH FINISH

Explanation

Among the given options, MONYEKA is the only one that is related to a type of finish. VARNISH FINISH is a type of finish used in woodworking to give a glossy and smooth appearance to the surface. KUSTURADA and PALITADA do not have any specific connection to finishes or woodworking. Therefore, the correct answer is MONYEKA.

Submit
29. SPACING OF GAP

Explanation

The correct answer is "BIENTO" because it is the only option that is spaced correctly. The other options, "MONYEKA" and "KUSTURADA," have extra spacing between the letters, which indicates that there is an error in their spacing. Therefore, "BIENTO" is the only option that is correctly spaced.

Submit
30. TEMPER (metal work)

Explanation

The word "temper" in the context of metal work refers to the process of heating and cooling a metal in order to improve its hardness and strength. The other options, "LIYABE" and "LASTILYAS," do not have any known connection to metal work. Therefore, the correct answer is "SUBAN/SUBUHAL," as it is a plausible term that could be related to the process of tempering metal.

Submit
31. SCRATCH COAT

Explanation

The correct answer is "REBOCADA." This answer is likely correct because "rebocada" translates to "plastered" or "rendered" in English, which is a term commonly used in construction or masonry. Given the context of the question, where "scratch coat" is mentioned, it is reasonable to assume that "rebocada" is the correct answer as it aligns with the topic of plastering or rendering a surface.

Submit
32. STRINGER (CLOSED)

Explanation

The correct answer is "MADRE (de escalera)" because "de escalera" is a Spanish phrase that means "of the stairs" or "staircase." In this context, "MADRE" refers to the main or central support beam of a staircase. Therefore, "MADRE (de escalera)" is the most appropriate term for the given list of words, as it specifically relates to a component of a staircase.

Submit
33. NAIL SETTER

Explanation

The correct answer is PUNSOL. The given words "NAIL SETTER" and "DE BANDEHA" do not provide any clear context or connection.

Explanation

Submit
35. SIDING (EXTERNAL)

Explanation

The correct answer is "TABIKE" because it is the only word in the given list that is related to construction or building. "SIDING (EXTERNAL)" suggests that the words are related to the exterior of a building, and "TABIKE" is a plausible construction material or technique.
