Florida Building Code- Steel

Quiz Questions:

   
1. Any steel structural member of a building or structure made of hot-rolled or cold-formed solid or open-web sections, or riveted or welded bars, strip or sheet steel members, or slot ted and expanded, or otherwise deformed rolled sections is a _____________________.
       
    Steel joist
    Steel joint
       
2. Cold-formed steel structural members need to be of corrosion-resistant steel, or have a corrosion-resistant metallic coating, paint or other approved coating.
       
    True
    False
       
3. Gable end walls shall be structurally continuous between points of lateral support.
       
    True
    False
       
4. A ____________can be characterized as a roof with two slopes that come together to form ridge or peak.
       
    Gabled roof
    Cathedral end walls
       
5. The intersection of the gable and end wall is a particularly weak point of gabled roofs unless full height framing is used. The weak point occurs when a gable end wall is built using platform type framing.
       
    True
    False
       
6. It is well known that once steel has yielded or deformed due to stress and strain from loading, it will gain its original maximum yield strength and therefore should be relied up for such design loading.
       
    True
    False
       
7. Ribbed bolts shall be made from car bon manganese steel with a minimum tensile strength of ______________per square inch.
       
    7,000
    70,000
    700,000
       
High-velocity hurricane zones:
       
8. The high-velocity hurricane zones are also subjected to low humidity which can be less corrosive to connections with many sides and edges.
       
    True
    False
       
9. Concrete will cause temperature changes resulting in condensation especially where steel is in contact with it. When steel is encased with concrete it is not subject to the atmosphere conditions and is naturally protected by the concrete's Ph.
       
    True
    False
       
10. Tubular members when filled with concrete shall have ___________ inch diameter pressure relief holes drilled through the shell, within 6 inches of the top and bottom of the exposed length of the member and one hole at mid height.
       
    1/4
    1/2
    3/4
       
11. Structural standing-seam roof sheets shall be a minimum of 24 gauge [0.0239 inch (.6 mm) nominal] in thickness.
       
    True
    False
       
12. Roof purlins and wall girts shall not be laterally braced in addition to relying on deck and panel diaphragm action.
       
    True
    False
       
13. The ends and bearing points of secondary members shall be designed to carry 100 percent of dead, live and collateral loads super imposed on them by wind.
       
    True
    False
       
14. The failure of these types of buildings under hurricane conditions was often the result of doors and windows failing thus leaving a partially enclosed building subject to 1.5 times its design load because of a rapid buildup of internal pressure.
       
    True
    False
       
15. Figure 2204.2.1 represents _____________________
       
    Projection of anchor rod threads
    Header types
