1. What are the three threat levels for force protection? - REPLY a. Level I
(terrorists, agents, and civil unrest) Level III (big conventional force), Level II
(small tactical units, guerillas)
1. What are the force protection efforts' top priorities? - ANSWER a. Create

How long should a basecamp constructed according to organic, initial,
temporary, and semi-permanent standards last? ANSWER a. Organic: fewer
than 90 days First: six months or less Temporary: no more than five years
Semipermanent: two to ten years
Which four guiding concepts apply to basecamp planning? The response
Survivability, Sustainability, Standardization, and Scalability
What phases are involved in the planning process for basecamp development?
The response Preliminary planning, location selection, land use planning,
development of facility requirements, general site planning, design guide
phasing and construction, maintenance and upgrades, Cleaning, Closing, and
Archiving
, What steps make up the phasing model for construction projects? Subphases of
the design guide, programming, and construction step of the BCDPP comprise
the ANSWER Construction Project Phasing Model. Project execution and
monitoring, final project transfer and closeout, final planning and project
turnover, initial project planning, preliminary construction planning, and
comprehensive project planning.
In comparison to the master planning processes, when would you use the
BCDPP? ANSWER The base camp development planning process (BCDPP) is
used for in-theater building, whereas master planning phases are utilized for
bases located on US soil.
Which ingredients make up concrete? The response Air, admixtures, aggregate,
Portland cement, and water
True or false: Rebar is added to concrete to strengthen it under compression.
The response Untrue; rebar strengthens concrete under stress and makes it
stronger under compression.
____________ is the name of the chemical reaction that occurs when Portland
cement and water combine. ANSWER Hydration
Which two kinds of reinforcing are used in concrete? The response Rebar, or
structural steel, is used to strengthen concrete against the forces of both static
and dynamic loads. The purpose of temperature and shrinkage steel (wire mesh)
is to keep the concrete from cracking on the surface while it cures and
withstands temperature variations.
For every 50-pound bag of cement, ___ gallons of water should be added.
ANSWER: 8 gallons
When water is added, which of the following properties of concrete increases?
Workability, water tightness, strength, or durability—ANSWER Workability.
The addition of water causes all the others to drop.
You are constructing a concrete pad from a dirt road that will be used by large
cars. To what extent should the margin be thickened? What ratio do you use for
a thicker pad's taper length? The response Use a 1:10 taper and thicken the edge
by 50% (for example, if the slab is 8" thick, thicken it by 4" to make the taper
40" long).
Which three elements make up the project? The response Scope, Money, and
