Here are the answers to the questions: 1. Four essential Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) that a technician would wear to mitigate risks when trimming mild steel sheets with an angle grinder are: Safety glasses or face shield* (to protect eyes from sparks and debris) Hearing protection* (earplugs or earmuffs to protect from noise) Heavy-duty work gloves* (to protect hands from cuts, heat, and sparks) Leather apron or flame-resistant clothing* (to protect the body from sparks and hot metal) 2. Four types of metals suitable for making electrical enclosures are: Galvanized steel* (for corrosion resistance) Stainless steel* (for high corrosion resistance and durability) Aluminum* (for lightweight and good conductivity) Mild steel* (often painted or coated for protection, cost-effective) 3. Four factors that affect the quality of the cut during a production run of shearing sheet metal are: Sharpness and condition of the shear blades* Correct blade clearance* (gap between upper and lower blades) Material thickness and type* Proper clamping of the workpiece* 4. Four measures a technician can take to prevent hazards and injuries while working in a sheet metal workshop are: Always wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)*. Ensure all machinery guards* are in place and functional. Keep the work area clean and free of clutter* to prevent trips and falls. Use correct lifting techniques* or mechanical aids for heavy materials. 5. Four measuring tools used for marking-out and dimensional checks on sheet metal components during fabrication are: Steel rule* Try square* Vernier caliper* Micrometer* 6. Definitions of the following terms: i. Lancing: A cutting operation that creates a slit or hole in the sheet metal without removing any material, often used to create tabs or vents. ii. Parting: A cutting operation that separates a workpiece into two or more pieces, typically by making a complete cut through the material. iii. Slitting: A continuous cutting operation that divides a wide coil or sheet of metal into several narrower strips. iv. Stilling: This term is not commonly used in the context of sheet metal cutting operations. It might be a misspelling or refer to a less common or specialized process. If it refers to "still" as in "stationary," it could imply holding the workpiece steady during an operation. 7. Four ways to maintain sheet metal cutting tools and equipment for future use are: Regular cleaning* to remove metal chips, dust, and debris. Lubrication* of moving parts (e.g., pivot points, slides) to reduce friction and prevent rust. Sharpening* of cutting blades (e.g., shear blades, snips) to maintain cutting efficiency and quality. Inspection for wear and damage*, replacing worn parts promptly to ensure safe and accurate operation. 8. Four advantages of choosing riveting over welding when fabricating a sheet metal tank are: No heat distortion* to the base metal, which is crucial for thin sheets. Dissimilar metals* can be easily joined without metallurgical compatibility issues. Easier disassembly* for maintenance or repair compared to welded joints. No specialized welding skills or equipment* (like power sources, gases) are required. 9. Four methods for inspection to ensure a fabricated sheet metal meter M box meets design specifications are: Dimensional inspection* using measuring tools (e.g., steel rule, calipers) to check overall dimensions, hole locations, and bend angles. Visual inspection* to check for surface defects like scratches, burrs, warpage, or incomplete joints. Functional inspection* to ensure moving parts (if any) operate correctly and that the box can house its intended components. Leak testing* (if applicable for a sealed box) to ensure the joints are airtight or watertight. 10. Four types of seams commonly used in sheet metal work to join edges accurately for a strong and leak-proof structure are: Grooved seam* (or Pittsburgh lock seam) Double seam* Standing seam* Lap seam* (when sealed or riveted appropriately)
