Can be used externally and exposed to the weather but cannot be placed into the ground

None

When screw fixing standard wall and ceiling sheets, why is it important not to overtighten fixing screws?

Because it flattens the drill battery quicker and wears out the screw driver bit

An overtightened screw will go through the face of the gyprock and can cause screws to ‘pop’

It makes the fixing point harder to set

It makes them harder to remove later

None

Why would paper tape be used in preference to perforated self-adhesive fibreglass joint tape?

Because the paper tape can be removed easier

Paper tape provides a stronger joint and there is less chance of cracking.

Because in a fire it doesn’t let off toxic fumes

Paper is more cost effective

When grouting the internal corners between two walls or the internal corner where a wall and floor meet you must –

Always add a grout additive as this makes it more flexible can resist the movement of the building that is caused by expansion and contraction

Never apply gout to these joins as expansion and contraction movement will cause the grout to crack and fall out, silicone should be used.

Only apply the grout by a rubber squeegee to ensure sufficient grout fills the join

Only use a pre mixed grout

Why would a low sheen finish be a better choice than a flat finish for interior wall areas?

There is no advantage with using a low sheen finish.

Low sheen finishes are more resistant to scuff marks and are easier to clean.

Low sheen coatings are usually cheaper.

A low sheen coating is more environmentally friendly.

None

In the construction industry, where may you encounter Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM)?

Asbestos is no longer used in building materials so it will not be found onsite.

Most commonly in buildings built before 1988 and in particular fibro walls and soffit (eave) linings, insulation materials, ‘super six’ (fibro) corrugated roofs.

Asbestos containing materials will always be identified by a sticker saying ‘Warning asbestos’.

Only in old bathrooms.

None

If you suspect lead paint hazards to be onsite how could you identify its presence?

With the aid of a lead test kit which are available from many paint retailers

Lead based paints were banned in NSW in 1970 so you will never encounter lead based paints anymore.

Lead based paints were never used on residential projects.

Ask your supervisor
