Question
Chapter 6, Problem 1RQ
To determine
Write the order of finishing exterior operations and why the order of finishing is followed.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
Wood light frame construction:
- It is a type of construction where vertical and horizontal elements are primarily formed by a stem of repetitive wood or light gauge steel framing members.
- It is very flexible and any shape can be constructed.
- Easy to construct by using hands.
- Requirement of tools is minimum.
Order of finishing exterior operations:
- Initial step is to finish the eaves and rakes. This is because the roof needs to be powdered and have to be guaranteed that there is a complete production on subsequent operations based on the condition of weather.
- Then, install the windows and doors.
- Next, make the sliding. Now, the building is ready for exterior painting to make the house fully water tight, so that it protects the interior of the house.
- Next step is to paint the building.
- Finally, complete the building with grading, landscaping, and paving work. This work must include the electrician, plumber carpenters, and sheet metal workers to complete the building work.
The above processes make the house fully weathertight, so the more delicate interior finishes can be put in a place.

A steel, possessing an eutectoid composition, undergoes a gradual cooling process from 800°C to
600°C. Outline the transformation, equilibrium microstructure, and provide approximate component
proportions.
Describe the resultant non-equilibrium microstructure in two scenarios:
a) the steel is rapidly cooled from 800°C to 600°C within 1 s, and then held at such temperature;
b) the steel is rapidly cooled from 800°C to 600°C within 1 s, maintained at this temperature for
5 s, and subsequently quenched to room temperature.
Use the provided diagrams.
