Exam Questions and Answers |
Already Graded A+
T/F Brick & Stone are usually served as facing materials - veneers, or
decorative walls. - ANSWER ✔✔True
T/F Concrete Masonry Units (CMU) are usually served as foundation
walls, structural support walls (low rise), or backup walls for exterior
facing. - ANSWER ✔✔True
T/F Mortar could be used to seal joints between the masonry units,
minimizing the flow of air and water. - ANSWER ✔✔True
,T/F Mortar could be used to adhere units, providing resistance to lateral
forces from wind, earthquakes. - ANSWER ✔✔True
T/F Portland cement is hydraulic cement and it hardens by chemically
combining with water (hydration). - ANSWER ✔✔True
T/F A well-graded mix lime mortar should be particles ranging in size
from 0.003 - 0.187 feet in diameter. - ANSWER ✔✔False
T/F For lime mortar ingredients, sands must be free of contaminants,
physically sound, and may be chemically reactive with the other mortar
ingredients. - ANSWER ✔✔False
