1The Malaysian timber classification system referenced in DSKP Pembuatan Perabot groups solid wood mainly by:

A.density and strength grade (kayu keras berat, kayu keras sederhana berat, kayu keras ringan, and kayu lembut)

B.the shape of the tree's leaves only

C.the country the timber was imported from

D.the colour of the bark only

Explanation: Malaysian timber grading commonly sorts solid wood into density-based groups — heavy hardwood, medium hardwood, light hardwood, and softwood — which relates to strength, durability, workability and suitable furniture uses.

2Within Malaysian timber grading, which group generally has the highest density and strength?

A.kayu lembut (softwood)

B.kayu keras berat (heavy hardwood, e.g. balau, cengal, merbau)

C.kayu keras ringan (light hardwood)

D.papan lapis (plywood) only

Explanation: Kayu keras berat (heavy hardwood) species such as balau, cengal and merbau have the highest density among the groups, giving them high strength and durability for demanding uses.

3Merbau is commonly used in Malaysian furniture and decorative components mainly because of its:

A.extremely low density, which makes it float and stay soft

B.status as a synthetic plastic material rather than real timber

C.high density, durability and attractive grain, which suit decorative components and heavy-use furniture parts

D.complete immunity to insect attack under every condition

Explanation: Merbau is a heavy hardwood with a rich reddish-brown colour and interlocked grain. Its density and durability let it carry load in frames, stair parts and heavy-use furniture, while its figure makes it attractive for exposed decorative components.

4Meranti, a widely used timber in Malaysian furniture making, belongs to which density group?

A.kayu keras berat (heavy hardwood)

B.kayu lembut only, with no hardwood classification

C.a purely synthetic composite category

D.kayu keras ringan (light hardwood)

Explanation: Meranti is generally classified as light hardwood (kayu keras ringan) and is widely used for furniture, plywood, doors and windows because it is workable yet reasonably durable.

5Plywood (papan lapis) gains much of its strength and dimensional stability mainly because:

A.adjacent veneer layers are glued together with their grain direction rotated at right angles to each other

B.it is cut from a single uncut solid log with no lamination

C.all its layers run with the grain in exactly the same direction

D.it contains no adhesive at all, relying only on pressure

Explanation: Plywood is built from an odd number of thin veneers laid so that each layer's grain runs at right angles to the one below it, a technique called cross-graining. Because wood moves far more across the grain than along it, the crossed layers restrain each other and the panel stays flat and strong in both directions.

6MDF (papan serat ketumpatan sederhana / medium-density fibreboard) is manufactured from:

A.thin veneer sheets cross-laminated in odd-numbered layers

B.wood fibres bonded together with resin under heat and pressure

C.solid timber strips edge-glued into a wide board

D.coarse wood chips held together without any binder

Explanation: MDF is made by breaking wood down into fine fibres, mixing them with a resin binder and wax, then pressing the mixture under heat and pressure into a dense, uniform panel. The fine fibre structure is why MDF machines to a clean edge and takes paint well.

7Particle board (papan partikel) is generally considered less suitable than plywood or solid wood for load-bearing screwed joints mainly because it:

A.cannot be cut with any woodworking machine

B.is far heavier than solid timber of the same size

C.has lower screw-holding strength and can crumble or split at joint edges under load

D.cannot be given a decorative surface finish

Explanation: Particle board is made from wood chips bonded with resin, so its edges have little continuous fibre for a screw thread to grip. Under repeated load the chips crush and the screw works loose, which is why particle board is normally used for lightly loaded carcase panels rather than structural screwed joints.

8Blockboard is characterised by:

A.a solid slab of compressed fine wood fibre throughout

B.coarse wood chips pressed into a uniform sheet

C.an odd number of thin veneers glued at right angles

D.a core of solid wood strips glued together, sandwiched between veneer face layers

Explanation: Blockboard has a core of narrow solid timber battens laid side by side and glued, with a veneer or plywood facing bonded to each side. The solid core keeps the panel light and stiff along the batten direction, which suits long shelves, door blanks and table tops.

9A workshop cuts shelf panels measuring 0.6 m by 0.4 m from a plywood sheet measuring 2.4 m by 1.2 m. Ignoring saw-kerf losses, what is the maximum number of complete panels obtainable from one sheet?

A.12 panels

B.8 panels

C.16 panels

D.6 panels

Explanation: Lay the panels with the 0.6 m side along the sheet's 2.4 m length: 2.4 ÷ 0.6 = 4 panels per row, and 1.2 ÷ 0.4 = 3 rows, giving 4 × 3 = 12 panels. The area check agrees: 2.88 m² ÷ 0.24 m² = 12.

10Why must timber generally be seasoned (dried to a suitable moisture content) before use in furniture making?

A.to add moisture so the wood becomes easier to bend permanently

B.to reduce moisture content and minimise future warping, shrinkage and splitting once the furniture is in use

C.to increase the timber's weight so the furniture feels more solid

D.to remove the grain pattern before finishing

Explanation: Green timber holds a great deal of water and shrinks as it dries. Seasoning brings the moisture content close to the level the wood will settle at in service, so most of the movement happens before the piece is built rather than afterwards as warping, opened joints or splits.
