Avixa CTS Exam - Topic 4 Question 9 Discussion

Actual exam question for Avixa's CTS exam

Question #: 9
Topic #: 4

A client setting terms for "tire protection of existing conditions" would most likely apply to which of tire following project types?

ANew construction

BA technology refresh

CA prefabricated building

DExpansion of an existing building

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

A client setting terms for 'tire protection of existing conditions' would most likely apply to an expansion of an existing building. This is because protecting existing conditions is crucial when construction activities are taking place adjacent to or within parts of a structure that will remain in use. Ensuring that existing elements of the building are not damaged during expansion work is a key concern. Reference: Construction and project management documents often specify requirements for protecting existing conditions during building expansions, as outlined in construction contracts and project specifications.

Really? I thought tire protection was only for new builds.

Wait, why would it apply to a tech refresh? Seems off.

I’m a bit confused. Could "tire protection" apply to prefabricated buildings too? I need to think this through more.

I practiced a similar question, and I think the answer was about existing buildings. So, maybe it’s option D?

I’m not entirely sure, but I feel like a technology refresh could also involve some existing conditions, right?

I remember discussing tire protection in relation to existing conditions, and I think it might be more relevant to expansions rather than new constructions.

I'm pretty confident this is asking about protecting the existing site/building during a construction project. Based on that, I'd say the answer is either B, a technology refresh, or D, expansion of an existing building. Those types of projects would require extra care to avoid damaging the existing conditions.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused by the wording here. "Tire protection" doesn't seem to make much sense in the context of a construction project. I'll have to re-read the question closely.

This seems like a tricky question. I'll need to think carefully about the meaning of "tire protection of existing conditions" and how that might apply to different project types.

Okay, I think I've got this. "Tire protection" must be a typo, and they probably meant to say "site protection of existing conditions." In that case, the answer is likely D, expansion of an existing building, since you'd need to protect the existing structure during the expansion.

I'm a bit confused. Could it also be an issue with the formula or the data type? I'll need to double-check those as well.

Haha, 'tire protection'? Is this a car repair exam or what? I'd say A, new construction, just to be safe.

I'm not sure, but I think it could also be A) New construction, because you would want to protect the tires during the construction process.

I agree with Rickie, because when you are expanding an existing building, you want to protect the existing conditions of the tires.
