                  | Most candidates were able to: state the function of the given type of walls;
 list types of doors in relation to the method of opening.
 However, few of them were  unable to:
 sketch a two-panel door  correctly;
 describe a method of stopping a leakage around a  roof nail in an 'existing aluminium 
ridge cap.
 The expected response to question 3 is as  given below:
 (a)Function of each of the following walls:
 (i)Partition wall is an internal wall which divides a building into rooms or spaces.
 (ii)Cavity wall is a wall built into two    leaves with a 50mm-75mm airspace 
                            between the two leaves of wall provides thermal insulation and barrier to 
                            moisture penetration into the building.
 (b)Types    of doors in relation to method of opening.
 They    are:
 (i)Sliding door.
 (ii)Folding    ~ Sliding    door.
 (iii)Swinging    door.
 (iv)Revolving    door.
 (v)Roller-Shutter door.

                  | (d)Method of stopping a leakage around a roof nail in an existing aluminium ridge 
                          capRemove the existing nail, cover and the    washers. Clean the area around the nail 
                          hole of all debris. Stop or block the hole with a perforated crown of roofing    sheet. 
                          Place    the metal washer, followed by felt-washer onto the roofing nail. Drive the nail  and washer firmly into the purlin.
