CIVE 2700 Quiz 2 (Lec 9 - 16)
questions well answered passed
Seasoning is the process of ... - correct answer ✔✔drying timber to equivalent moisture content
(EMC)
What are the three corrosion resistant types of steel according to CSA classification? - correct
answer ✔✔Types R, A, AT
A measure of energy absorbed during the fracture of a specimen of standard dimensions and
geometry when subjected to very rapid (impact) loading. Charpy impact tests are used to
measure this parameter, which is important in assessing the ductile-to-brittle transition
behaviour of a material - correct answer ✔✔Impact Energy
The basic structural unit of a crystal structure. It is generally defined in terms of atom (or ion)
positions within a parallelepiped volume. - correct answer ✔✔Unit Cell
A linear crystalline defect associated with the lattice distortion produced in the vicinity of the
end of an half-plane of atoms within a crystal. - correct answer ✔✔Edge dislocation
Loose knots in timber can... - correct answer ✔✔decrease strength and stiffness of lumber
The valence electrons are the electrons in the nearest shell to a nucleus of an atom. True or
False? - correct answer ✔✔False.
The valence electrons are the electrons of the outer shell of the atom.
