WATER RESTORATION EXAM IICRC QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
WITH COMPLETE SOLUTIONS. LATEST 2024. ALREADY PASSED
GRADE A+
1. The most critical course of action in restoration during is to
an begin as soon as possible: respond quickly & mitigation
2. All re
developed by the restoration industry entitled the IICRC .: s500
3. To help protect technicians
from the many hazards associated with contaminated water losses restorers need to have
ready access to several items. These items protect for all to the body.:
potential exposures
4. Respiratory protection regulations state that the employer must provide: 1. Medical
evaluations
2. Fit testing
3. Training
5. The contract clearly states the agreement
between the building owner and the restoration contractor. The form specifies who is
responsible for payment and should be signed work begins: before
6. The technicians first
responsibility when arriving at a water damage site is to identify communicate and
eliminate if reasonably possible:
safety hazards
7. Federal regulations apply to handling or disturbing of based paint and asbestos:
lead
8. After safety concerns have been addressed and the initial water source has been
stopped, the restorer must complete an evaluation of the water's migration through the
structure. During this process, the restorer inspects all
Areas.: potentially affected
9. The ultimate goal is to find the edge of water
migration which moves in a three dimensional path throughout the structure. This is
accomplished across carpeted surfaces using a and across most hard surfaces using
a (non-penetrating) moisture meter.: moisture sensor , non-invasive
10. Water from a clean source with no substantial risk of causing sickness or discomfort
is said to be: category 1
11. Water that has significant degree of chemical biological and or physical
contamination and potential to cause sickness or discomfort is
: category 2
12. Cleaning
procedures must be employed before the drying of a category 2 water loss can
continue. At a minimum affected must be
, removed and disposed of and carpet must be throughly cleaned using a hot water
extraction method.: carpet underlay
13. When water
intrusion results from a grossly unsanitary source or carries
14. Worker and occupant and safety are the
1st priority on every sewage loss. Areas affected by category 3 water intrusion are
marked and posted as potentially hazardous.: health
15. Various
cleaning and decontamination procedures must be used on Category 3 water losses,
including the removal of all
materials affected by the water intrusion.: highly porous
16. Whe
n resistance is encountered and performing proper services in a category 3 water loss
becomes a challenge restorers
immediately to prevent liability and address the conflict.: stop work
17. Third party experts are commonly referred to as Indoor
Environmental Professionals, or .: IEP
18. Losses where regulated or hazardous
materials have contaminated the structure do not change the of water.: category
19. Pre-existing conditions should be identified documented and
communicat- ed to all parties during the initial inspection.: materially interested
20. When carpet delimitation (the loss of integrity in the
adhesives used to laminate the and backings) has occurred, further
damage is very likely. For this reason when extensive carpet delimitation is discovered
technicians must call it to the attention go all materially interested parties , document
the condition and suggest replacement.: primary and secondary
21. There are number of causes for carpet delimitation - many of them relates to
restoration activities: improper
22. Many building materials
will absorb excess water vapor and suffer damage, especially when air is allowed to
remain above % relative humidity.: 60%
23. Hygroscopic materials gain and lose moisture continually in an effort
to with the water content in the surrounding air mass. The more
Hygroscopic the material, the faster it will collect water vapor, and the easier it will
suffer damage.: equalize and secondary
24. When water intrusion results in water running
through wall cavities, inspection access holes are used to ensure that blown-in insulation
has not compacted and lost its . Wet compressed insulation should be -
: R-Value , removed
25. Th
e most effective way to speed the drying process is to remove as much of the water in
a liquid state as possible during the
