small pieces of wood merged to form boards using various types of glue.
Medium density fiberboard - correct answer. is composite building material that is a
type of laminated wood closely resembling hardwood and is used for doors and
decorative moldings.
Particle board - correct answer. is composite building material composed of small
flakes of wood merged together with glue to form boards used for furniture.
Synthetic wood - correct answer. s composite building material composed of recycled
plastics to form sheets or boards.
Steel support temperatures begin losing strength at - correct answer. 570 degrees or
300 celsius. It elongates and buckles when heated past temperature resistance.
An A-frame collapse - correct answer. occurs when the floor and/or roof assemblies
on both sides of a load-bearing center wall collapse creating a lean-to collapse on
opposite sides of the wall and creating void spaces on both sides of the wall
pattern occurs when the outer walls remain intact and the upper floors and/or roof
structure fail in the middle. - correct answer. A V-shaped collapse
A pancake collapse - correct answer. pattern is when the structure's floors collapse on
top of each other with debris between them.
A lean-to collapse - correct answer. pattern occurs when one outer wall fails while the
opposite wall remains intact.
, Has excellent heat resistance known as drywall or sheetrock. - correct answer.

metal
Whizzer saw - correct answer. ring cutting used for delicate cutting
Air chisel- - correct answer. Pneumatic, operates at 90 to 250 psi. Break locks, cut
heavy gauge sheet metal.
Low pressure Pneumatic lifting bags - correct answer. and medium bags are
considered larger and extend to greater height and used for larger vehicles or objects
High pressure Pneumatic lifting bags - correct answer. as they inflate they lose
stability and lifting power and also only extend up to 20 inches. Very durable material
though.
