AGMT Architectural Glass & Metal Technician
Certification ACTUAL EXAM COMPLETE 200
QUESTIONS AND VERIFIED SOLUTIONS LATEST
UPDATE THIS YEAR
AGMT Architectural Glass & Metal Technician Certification –
Domains Covered Across All Batches:
1. Safety – OSHA regulations, fall protection, PPE, hazard recognition, and emergency
procedures
2. Tools & Equipment – Hand tools, power tools, lifting devices, maintenance, and
inspections
3. Glass Handling & Installation – Glass types, cutting, glazing, handling techniques,
framing, anchors
4. Sealants & Weatherproofing – Caulking, silicone, structural sealants, joint design,
curing, and testing
5. Blueprint Reading & Layout – Reading plans, symbols, dimensions, tolerances, and
coordination with trades
6. Codes & Standards – ASTM, ANSI, NFRC, local building codes, fire safety, wind and
seismic standards
7. Quality Control & Inspection – Tolerances, surface finish, alignment, glass performance
testing, documentation
Batch 1 – Questions 1–50
1. What is the primary federal safety regulation governing construction site safety for glass
and glazing work?
A) ASTM E1300
B) ANSI Z97.1
C) OSHA 29 CFR 1926
D) NFRC 100
,Page 2 of 84
Rationale: OSHA 29 CFR 1926 sets comprehensive construction safety standards, including
scaffolding, fall protection, and materials handling for glass and glazing work.
2. Which PPE should always be worn when handling glass?
A) Hard hat and steel-toe boots only
B) Cut-resistant gloves, safety glasses, and long sleeves
C) Ear plugs and dust mask only
D) Safety vest only
Rationale: Cut-resistant gloves, safety glasses, and long sleeves protect against lacerations and
shards during handling of glass panels.
3. What is the safest method for lifting large glass panels?
A) Pulling from one corner
B) Using suction cups and team lifts
C) Dragging on the floor
D) Leaning against a wall
Rationale: Suction cups and coordinated team lifting reduce the risk of glass breakage and
worker injury.
4. Which type of glass is most resistant to shattering?
A) Annealed glass
B) Tempered glass
,Page 3 of 84
C) Laminated glass
D) Float glass
Rationale: Tempered glass is heat-treated to increase strength and, if broken, shatters into
small granular pieces instead of sharp shards.
5. What is the purpose of a structural silicone sealant in curtain wall installation?
A) Decorative finish only
B) Weatherproofing and structural adhesion
C) Temporary bonding
D) Cleaning glass surfaces
Rationale: Structural silicone sealants bond glass to frames while providing weatherproofing
and movement accommodation.
6. Which tool is used to cut glass precisely along a straight line?
A) Jigsaw
B) Drill
C) Glass cutter
D) Circular saw
, Page 4 of 84
Rationale: A glass cutter scores the surface, allowing the panel to be snapped cleanly along the
scored line.
7. What is the correct slope for sealant joints to allow drainage?
A) Flat
B) 1/4 inch per foot
C) 1 inch per foot
D) Vertical only
Rationale: Proper slope prevents water pooling and ensures drainage from the joint,
minimizing leakage and sealant failure.
8. Which standard defines safety glazing requirements for human impact?
A) NFRC 100
B) ANSI Z97.1
C) ASTM E1300
D) OSHA 1926.451
Rationale: ANSI Z97.1 specifies safety glazing standards, including impact resistance for doors
and windows.
