#1. During the inspection process, restorers shall make a reasonable effort to
C. identify and address potential safety hazards
#2. A significant amount of water absorption and evaporation load where wet
porous materials represent ~5% to ~40% of combined ceiling, walls, and flooring
surface areas and where low evaporation materials and assemblies are minimally
wet is
B. class 2
#3. Multiple extraction of salvageable materials, especially porous material (e.g.
Carpet , cushion) often are required to:
decrease drying time
#4. To enhance drying, restorers should manage both ambient temperature and
surface temperatures of affected materials
#5. Water damage restoration services should not begin until after the:
restorer has entered into an adequately written contract.
#6. Two tools that should be used to properly disengage most stretched-in carpet
Knee kicker and carpet awl
#7. When inspecting a water damage structure, restorers should inspect:
all potentially affected areas.
#8. Buckled or damaged particle board should
removed and replaced with new material.
#9. upon entering a building, professional moisture detection equipment should
be used to evaluate and document:
applicable psychrometric conditions and moisture content or level readings .
#10. When wet, a structural material that loses most of its structural integrity, but
regains its strength when dry, is:
, Concrete
#11 Initially, a method of search for abnormal moisture behind ceramic tile or
resilient flooring can be accomplished by
using a non-penetrating (non-invasive) moisture meter
#12. To minimize damage and reduce drying time, reduce drying time, restorers
should:
begin mitigation as soon as safely possible
#13. The moisture content of structural materials should be measured with a
A. moisture meter
#14. When accessible from below, to dry wet wood subflooring under stone or tile
flooring, restorers can use low-humidity air and
D. vapor barrier
#15. Biocides designed to destroy or eliminate all forms of microbial life and their
spores are
D. sterilizers
#16. When carpet is wet it can be delaminated by
D. improper handling and disengaging
#17. To minimize or control aerosolized soils or contaminants during restoration,
restorers can:
B. install one or more air filtration devices (AFDs)
#18. When pre-existing damage is discovered, restorer should
D. document and bring it to the attention of materially interested parties
#19. Rapid drying of structural materials is achieved by
A. promoting evaporation and dehumidification or ventilation
#20. When carpet and cushion (pad, underlay) are saturated with Category 3
water
B. Both should be removed for proper disposal
#21. To minimize safety concerns and to speed structural drying, gypsum board
(drywall) ceilings that are saturated and sagging should be
A. drained, removed quickly, and properly disposed
#22. The force exerted by water molecules in the air on surrounding surfaces is
