Preview Questions Steel Fixer | Role Specific Skill

Question 1: What is the key difference between deformed bars and plain bars in reinforcement?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Plain bars are easier to cut and bend than deformed bars

Deformed bars are more affordable and lighter than plain bars

Plain bars are used in less critical structural elements

Deformed bars have ridges that improve bonding with concrete, while plain bars do not

Question 2: Which safety precaution is essential when using cutting tools?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Cut steel at the specified angle to avoid stress on the tool

Ensure all tools are in good condition and free from defects

Only use cutting tools on reinforced concrete

Wear no PPE while using cutting tools

Question 3: What is the key difference between a "continuous bar" and a "spliced bar" in steel reinforcement installation?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Continuous bars are welded, while spliced bars are tied

Continuous bars are not cut or bent, while spliced bars are joined using lap splices or couplers

Continuous bars are placed randomly, while spliced bars follow specific guidelines

Spliced bars are stronger and do not require tying

Question 4: Which of the following materials is used in combination with steel reinforcement bars to enhance fire resistance?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Concrete with added silica fume

Calcium silicate cement

Magnesium-based materials

High-density polyethylene (HDPE)

Question 5: What is the primary safety concern when working with steel reinforcement bars in confined spaces?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Risk of electric shock from exposed wires

Risk of suffocation due to lack of air circulation

Risk of being struck by a moving vehicle

Risk of falling objects due to improper storage

Question 6: What should a steel fixer do if they notice a structural element is misaligned during installation?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Continue working and report it after the project completion

Attempt to fix the misalignment on their own

Ignore the issue as it won't affect the final result

Stop work immediately and report the misalignment to the supervisor
