  • Distempering and colour wasting
  • Painting

2. What are the types of Masonry?

  • Stone Masonry
  • Brick Masonry
  • Hollow Block Concrete Masonry
  • Reinforced masonry.
  • Composite Masonry.

3. Define plinth.

  • It is the horizontal course of stone or brick provided at the base of the wall above ground level. 
  • It indicates the height of the ground floor level above the natural ground level. 
  • It protects the building from dampness.
  • The plinth height of 300 mm to 450 mm is adopted from the natural ground level.

4. What are classifications of stone masonry ?

  • Rubble Masonry.
  • Ashlar Masonry.
5. What is rubble masonry and ashlar masonry?

Rubble masonry:

  • Stones of irregular sizes are used. 
  • Stones may be undressed or roughly dressed. 
  • Using hammer having wider joints.

Ashlar masonry :

  • This is a costlier, high grade and superior quality of masonry. 
  • The work built accurately dressed stones with and very fine joints of about 3 mm.

6. What are admixtures?

  • Admixture are natural  or artificial materials added to concrete, in addition to cement, water, and aggregates.
  • It to improve certain properties of concrete during casting, laying, or the service stage. 
  • It to improve the properties of the concrete needed. 

7. What are the defects in brick masonry ?

  • Sulphate Attack. 
  • Crystallization of salts from bricks. 
  • Corrosion of embedded iron or steel.
  • Shrinkage on drying.
8. Common sizes of building blocks.

  • 390 x 190 x 300 mm- Standard size hollow block.
  • 390 x 190 x 200 mm- Hollow building tiles.
  • 390 x 190 x 100 mm- Hollow concrete blocks for partition.

9. What the types of flooring commonly used.

  • Mud Flooring, 
  • Cement Concrete Flooring, 
  • Mosaic Flooring, 
  • Tiled Flooring.
  • Marble Flooring

10. Define Damp Proof Course (DPC), what are its causes of dampness.

  • The courses which are laid to check the entry of water or moisture into the building are called Damp Proof Courses (DPC).

Causes:-

  • Faulty design of structure faulty construction or poor workmanship use of poor quality materials in construction.

11. Define Roofs.

  • A roof is defined as the uppermost part of the building which is constructed in the form of a frame work to give protection to the building against rain , heat wind etc.

12. What are the uses of water proofing compounds.

  • When water proofing compounds is added to cement during construction it prevents leakage. 
  • It is available in powder form. 
  • It is mixed with cement by hand before cement is mixed with aggregate.
13. what are the condition for filters.
  • It should remove harmful particles from air.
  • It should be workable under different velocity.
  • It should have very low frictional resistance.
  • It should not cause contamination of incoming air.
  • it should be easy to clean.
14. Define Fire Resistance

  • It is the time during which an element of structure fulfills its function in building safely in the event of fire of known intensity. 
  • Fire resistance is also defined as an index of fire safety of buildings.

15. Define Acoustics

  • The term acoustics is defined as the science of sound, and it describes the origin propagation and sensation of sound.

16. What are the conditions for good acoustics of an auditorium:-

  • The initial sound should be of adequate intensity or loudness.
  • It is important for a speaker to be heard over a long distance.
  • The sound produced should be evenly spread over the whole area covered by audience. 
  • If the sound is not evenly distributed echoes will be established.
  • the initial sound should be clear and distinct.
  • For music hall ,the initial sound should reach the audience with same frequency and intensity.
  • All undesired sound should be reduced.

17. Define Scaffolding:-

  • Scaffolding is defined as the temporary structure employed in the building construction for supporting workers, materials and tools etc., during its construction alteration, demolition, painting and repair etc.
18. Types of Scaffolding.

  • Single scaffolding or Brick layer scaffolding.
  • Double scaffolding or Masons scaffolding.
  • Ladder scaffolding.
  • Cantilever or Needle scaffolding.
19. Materials used for Joints.

  • Bituminous felt
  • Metal strips
  • Fiber board

20. Define flooring

  • The properly supported horizontal surfaces which divide the building into different levels for providing accommodation one above the other within space are called floors.
