Ans: formation of scar tissue in the lungs


Question: What is mesothelioma?

asbestos fibers


Question: What is Asbestosis


Ans: Asbestosis is a condition developed in the lungs as a result of inhalation of
asbestosis fibers.


Question: What is AHERA?

Question: What is the dose-response relationship with asbestos and cancer?

Question: Bridging Encapsulant


Ans: The type of encapsulation that forms a hard shell on the outside of
asbestos-containing material is called a (n):


(ex. If used on soil it would form a hard layer over the soil that would break if
disturbed)


Question: Penetrating Encapsulant

, Ans: The type of encapsulant that is absorbed into the asbestos matrix, and
binds the components together. (n):

material)


Question: How far does penetrating encapsulant penetrate?


Ans: 13mm (1/2 inch)


Question: Removal Encapsulant


Ans: Penetrating encapsulant specifically designed to minimize fiber release
during removal of asbestos-containing materials rather than for encapsulation.


Question: Encapsulate


Ans: A liquid material which can be applied to asbestos-containing material
which controls the possible release of asbestos fibers from the material either by
creating a membrane over the surface (Bridging encapsulant)


or by penetrating into the material and binding it's components together
(Penetrating encapsulant)

Ans: Asbestos Containing Building Material (interior and >1%)


Question: What is ACCM?

, Ans: Asbestos Containing Construction Material (>0.1%; greater than one-

Question: When a school has friable asbestos they...?


Ans: Must implement an Asbestos Management Plan with yearly notification to
any changes in ACM conditions


Question: What is ACM?


Ans: Asbestos-containing material is defined as any material containing more
than 1% asbestos; >1%.


Question: Non-friable Asbestos Containing Material (ACM) is considered

hazardous.


Ans: False.


Question: Non-friable asbestos can become friable.


Ans: Through Mechanical (power tools) means during removal.
