If a joint in wall sheet cannot be located over a wall stud, how must the join be reinforced?

Nothing, the gyprock with span once set

Install an additional stud where the join will be located

Glue and install a baton along and behind the joint

Both B and C

20.

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

21.

Why should standard wall sheets be fixed 10 mm off the floor?

To allow for easier painting later,

To allow for expansion in hot weather

To allow for movement of the building structure and prevent joints from cracking.

To allow for fixing of the skirting board

22.

When fixing standard wall and ceiling sheets to timber framing how wide the gap should be between sheets?

There should be no gap and sheets should be firmly butted together

The gap should not be more than 5mm

A 1mm gap should be left to allow for structural movement

A gap can be less than 5mm only if you’re going to set the wall without re-enforcing tape

23.

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

24.

How do standard ceiling sheets differ from standard wall sheets?

They contain fiberglass in the core to allow for maximum span of 600mm.

Ceiling sheets are thinner than wall sheets

They come in longer lengths

There is no difference

25.

How long should be left between the applications of base coat and following topping coats?

1 hour

6 hours

12 hours

24 hrs or as recommended by manufacturer.

26.

Why is it recommended that a jointing system be three coats?

If you use three coats a joining tape is not required

To allow compounds to shrink back as they dry and achieve a flat finish.

It is not recommended

A third coat will not crack with temperature changes

27.

What is a level 5 finish?

A level 5 finish is a joining system that requires 5 topcoats

A level 5 finish is the joining system for 5mm compressed sheeting

A level 5 finish is where an entire surface is set with toping compound so as to achieve a perfectly flat surface.

A level 5 finish is a painting term and does not apply to wall and ceiling lining

28.

When using a mitre box to cut a mitre to cut paper faced cornice a common mistake is to-

Not use a proper saw

Use a metal instead of a wooden mitre box

Not measure the cornice length correctly

Cut the cornice upside down
