Assignment sample solution of CPCCCO2013 - Carry out concreting to simple forms

Question 1. Match the tools and equipment with their uses:

A) To remove air voids and excess water from freshly poured concrete.

B) To level and smooth the surface of freshly poured concrete.

C) To strike off and level the concrete surface to the desired elevation.

D) To create a straight edge along the perimeter of the concrete.

E) To compact concrete and improve its strength and durability.

Question2. Match the concreting materials with their respective uses:

A) Support and elevate steel reinforcement off the ground during concrete pouring.

B) Provide lateral support to formwork, preventing it from collapsing during concrete placement.

C) Used to create a defined edge for concrete slabs and structures.

D) Reinforce concrete to increase its tensile strength and prevent cracking.

E) Used to secure formwork and hold it in place during concrete pouring.

F) Prevent water vapor from seeping into the concrete, protecting against moisture-related issues

G) Provide additional strength and stability to the concrete structure.

H) Used to reinforce the concrete and control cracking due to temperature and shrinkage

Question 3. Select the correct answer.

In reinforcing componentry for concrete structures, what is the primary function of stirrups?

A) Provide vertical support

B) Enhance shear strength

C) Improve tensile strength

D) Control temperature variations
