Congratulations Tim!
**
!. C is the correct answer. **
I made that term up and I have no idea what grow season based is. All the other answers are causes for checking and cracks.
**
2. C is the correct answer. **
Bamboo has tensile strength equal to steel. Used as scaffolding for high rise buildings in Asian countries. Scaffold builders pass the skills down to their sons,some families have been building scaffolds for generations.

3. ABC is the correct answer. ****
   For a number of reasons squash blocks make good supports for plumbing, electric and HVAC runs. I assume this will bring an argument, if so bring it on.
   **
4. A is the correct answer.**
   Masonry beams which are seldom used have great compression strength but are pretty much useless for anything else.

Bring on the arguments! :mrgreen:

[sfetty (Dave Fetty, CMI)]

Congratulations Tim, good questions Paul. Thanks for your time.

[twilliams15 (Tim Williams)]

Thanks Paul!

[mcyr (Marcel Cyr, CMI®)]

Congratulations Tim.
Tim has now won the maximum wins for the Year. Congratulations on that.

Winnings will be limited to no more than 6 times in a given year, the objective is to allow as many Members a chance to win as possible.

I’m glad it all worked out. For those of us who create the questions the challenge is finding something you can’t Google in 10 seconds and understanding we have some very sharp inspectors on this forum, guys who were master electricians, plumbers, masons, framers etc. Good inspectors that have been there and done that.

Nice going Tim!
