1

What is the role of project specifications?

2

What is the role of a ‘spotter’ when concrete delivery trucks are being used? Give 4 examples.

3

Excavation work requires management of risks, regardless of the depth of the work. What signage is required when carrying out this type of work? Give 4 examples.

4

How is reinforcing mesh commonly cut, and what PPE should be used?

5

Gavin is building a small shed in his backyard. The measurements of the shed are below.

Using Cement Australia’s calculator https://www.cementaustralia.com.au/calculators/slabs, calculate how much concrete will be required to lay a slab at 100 mm thickness.

How many cubic metres of concrete is required?

If you were to mix your own concrete, how many 20 kg bags of concrete mix will you need?

What percentage allowance has been considered for wastage?

6

What would be the cost of concrete for the footing around the perimeter of the house, if they are 350 mm wide and 200 mm deep, and concrete costs $130/m3? Use the table below to show your working out.

Outer area of floor

Inner area of floor

Surface area of footings

Volume of footings

Cost of concrete

7

Determine the cost of concrete for the slab of the house (100 mm thick) at $130/m3. Use the table below to show your working out.

Volume of concrete

Cost of concrete

8

True or false. The reinforcement delivered to site should be stored neatly in a location specially prepared for this purpose. Reinforcement should be stored on a platform off the ground to prevent corrosion and contamination due to deleterious matter (mud, grease, oil, paint, loose rust, etc).

9

Identify 3 methods of dust suppression.

10

List 8 tools and equipment that would be required to pour a simple 1 x 1 metre concrete slab.

12

What is the purpose of the slab rebate in a brick veneer domestic construction?

13

22

What needs to be taken into account when loading concrete into a wheelbarrow from a truck?

23
