When reinforcing conrete, how should you hold the rebar together while pouring the concrete?
With tie wires at the joints to prevent movement.
What are the best materials for filling around a concrete foundation?
Gravel and ground concrete slabs
How long should you wait before installing equipment on a new concrete slab or foundation?
28 days
Equipment that reciprocates horizontally sometimes need isolation on it’s?
A retainer on its sides, keeps the equipment from walking
What set of instructions should you follow for selecting and installing anchors and isolators for new equipment?
The manufacturer’s instructions
Use neoprene tubing between the anchor bolt and bolt hole to isolate the bolt when bolting down equipment on pads
T
Use a good industrial torque wrench that is within the torque range specified on the engineering drawings.
T
What type of drill bit should be used for holes larger than one and a 1 1/2” diameter?
A carbide or diamond tip core bit (hollow in the middle)
Can concrete be used in place of grout for equipment ?
No because no matter how thin the concrete mixture is made, it shrinks when it cures and its is very brittle like that.
Where should you report damage on newly arrived equipment?
Report it to the carrier.

When moving heavy equipment with a skid, how many rollers should support the load at all times.
At least 3 rollers
What should be used underneath crowbars or prybars when working on floors so as not to damage them?
A wood block should be used.
When lowering equipment, if you dont have enough space to lower and remove slings, you should lower the load onto .
Wedges that can be knocked out afterward.
Pmaster precision levels should be handled only by the non-conductive top plate to prevent your body heat from affecting the readings.
True
Use a precision V-block between the level and an inverted V-shaped way.
True.
To set a level across these machine tool ways, use precision ground parallels or guage blocks.

Magnetic
What should be done to the head of alignment screws once they are set to their correct position.

What does a pressure regulating valve do?
It regulates the fluid (gas or liquid) pressure in a system to a preset level.

A copy of the test data sheet is usually attached to the equipment manual.
What is the usual cause of excessive temperature during startup of equipment?
It is uaually a lack of lubrication or cooling water.
