GE CCC Exam with answErs 100% CorrECt
Define: General Engineering ✔✔ Those engineering capabilities and activities, other than combat
engineering, that modify, maintain, or protect the physical environment.
Examples include: the construction, repair, maintenance, and operation of infrastructure, facilities, lines
of communication and bases; terrain modification and repair; and selected explosive hazards activities.
(ATP 3-34.40 General Engineering)
Two Levels of Quality Control (QC) ✔✔ 1. Unit - The unit's QC manager and assigned QC specialists
perform and direct activities to execute the unit-level QC program.
2. Project - Project managers and project supervisors perform and direct activities to develop an
individual project QC plan.
Inspections ✔✔ Vital Part of Controlling Quality
• Measure performance against a standard
• Determine the magnitude of the problem(s)
• Seek the root cause(s) of the problem(s)
• Determine a solution
• Assign responsibility to the appropriate individuals or agencies
Reports ✔✔ Reports should list, for each phase of control, the factual results of control actions taken,
observations made, and any remedial and corrective actions.
The frequency of reporting or time for submitting reports must be indicated on the Quality Control Plan
,Performance Work Statement ✔✔ •Keys to a good PWS:
1) Use performance based language
2) Prevent contractor shortcuts
3) Prevent contractor shortcuts.
•Altering the contract costs a lot more money, effort and time than doing it right the first time.
All elements of: Construction Activity (JCMS) ✔✔ 1. NSN's
2. Resources
3. Drawings
4. Support Files
5. TOGs (Theater Oriented Guide Specifications)
- Describe the processes, procedures and construction standard for the associated sequence.
- Ex. Masonry specifications
Power Law
P = ? ✔✔ P = I * E
P (watts) = I (amps) * E (volts)
1 hp = ____ watts ✔✔ 746 watts = 1 hp
Ohm's Law
, R = ? ✔✔ R (ohms) = E / I
Demand Load ✔✔ Demand Load = Total Connected Load * Demand Factor
DL = CL * DF
% Motor Load ✔✔ %ML = (TML/TDL)*100
% ML = ( Total Motor Load (kW) / Total Demand Load (kw)) * 100
Generator Capacity ✔✔ Generator Capacity = Total Demand Load * Generator Factor
GC = TDL * GF
Generator Load Balancing
Determine if the loads are within 10% ✔✔ I (min) * 1.10 > I (max)
Construction Projects can be broken down into three types: ✔✔ - Permanent
• Life expectancy greater than 25 years
• Low maintenance cost
• Only executed by USACE
- Semi-permanent
• Life expectancy between 5 and 25 years
• Only executed by USACE
• Troop construction may be used
