Shocking!!
As per others, this test is simply set to trip you up. 1 question recommends a timber roofing gang to errect a scaffold…I suggested they checked the scaffold tags. Why on earth are CITB recommending a roofing gang to erect a scaffold?
Also a question based on the lung problems caused from silica dust, is it hardening of lung tissue or pleura lung damage. Am I a construction professional or a doctor? Do I need to know how to protect people from silica dust or delve into the exact way it will affect your lungs. Why not just say silicosis, this is ridiculous.
What next, asking us to show we know how burns affect your skin? Maybe we can describe the difference between first degree and third degree burns too whilst at it.
That should keep us safe. Or we could focus on ways to reduce and burns…and wasting time on poorly designed tests. Scammers.

Response from developer
Dear Brengineer06, I am sorry to hear that you feel the questions are not up to standard. I have reviewed the question about the scaffolding and I think you might have misinterpreted the correct answer. The roofing team themselves are not necessarily expected to erect their OWN scaffolding - the point being made is that the roofing team needs to arrange for a scaffold to be erected. They might do that themselves if they are qualified to, but the point is that a scaffold is needed and they need to ensure one is in place. That notwithstanding, I will pass your comments onto CITB's questions authoring team. Thank you for your comments.
