SECTION 1: PRODUCTIVITY AND LABOR (Questions 1-
10)




Question 1
During the construction of a recent office building, your company's framing
crew installed 515 lineal feet of 8-foot-high, metal-stud wall in two days. The
crew consisted of two carpenters and one helper and worked eight hours per
day. Determine the productivity rate in labor hours per foot of wall for
installing metal-stud walls on this project.

A) 0.093 lhr/lft
B) 0.084 lhr/lft
C) 0.102 lhr/lft
D) 0.125 lhr/lft

Answer: A) 0.093 lhr/lft

Rationale: The productivity rate is calculated as total labor hours divided by
the quantity of work completed. The crew size was 3 workers (2 carpenters +
1 helper). They worked 8 hours per day for 2 days, totaling 3 × 8 × 2 = 48
labor hours. They installed 515 lineal feet of wall. Therefore, productivity =
48 lhr / 515 lft = 0.0932 lhr/lft, which rounds to 0.093 lhr/lft . This
productivity rate can be used to estimate labor hours for similar work on
future projects.
