1According to TESDA Tile Setting NC II Training Regulations, what is the primary qualification outcome for a certified tile setter?
A.Lay and repair floor and wall tiles, tile corners, and curved surfaces
B.Perform plumbing repair and maintenance works
C.Conduct pipe leak testing and make piping joints
D.Fabricate and install formwork components for concrete structures
Explanation: The Tile Setting NC II qualification consists of competencies to lay and repair floor and wall tiles, tile corners, and curved surfaces. Plumbing and formwork are separate construction qualifications.
2Before starting a wall tiling job, what should a tile setter secure and interpret according to CON713332 performance criteria?
A.Work instructions, drawings, and specifications in line with job requirements
B.Electrical load calculations for the building panel
C.Plumbing isometric drawings for drain lines only
D.Painting schedule and color tint formulas
Explanation: Element 1 of CON713332 requires securing and interpreting work instructions aligned with job requirements, including drawings and specifications that define layout, materials, and quality standards.
3When laying out a floor tiling job, what is the first practical check specified in the TESDA competency standard?
A.Verify the area(s) to be tiled against job requirements before setting tiles
B.Apply grout to all joints before placing any tiles
C.Polish the finished surface before adhesive cures
D.Install expansion gaps only after grouting is complete
Explanation: Element 2.1 requires checking the area to be tiled in line with job requirements before tiles are laid out. Grouting and final polishing occur after installation.
4A bathroom floor measures 2.4 m by 3.0 m. Using 30 cm × 30 cm tiles with no grout allowance, how many whole tiles are needed to cover the floor?
A.80 tiles
B.72 tiles
C.90 tiles
D.60 tiles
Explanation: Floor area = 2.4 × 3.0 = 7.2 m². Each tile = 0.3 × 0.3 = 0.09 m². Tiles needed = 7.2 ÷ 0.09 = 80 tiles.
5When installing wall tiles per TESDA standards, what alignment tool is set to maintain level and plumb installation?
A.Guide or batter board set to level alignment
B.Torque wrench calibrated to manufacturer specs
C.Micrometer for measuring tile thickness only
D.Voltmeter for checking substrate moisture
Explanation: Performance criterion 3.2 requires tiles to be installed with a guide or batter board set to level alignment, ensuring straight courses and proper vertical alignment.
6What must be maintained between tiled surfaces and adjacent walls when laying floor tiles?
A.Expansion gaps following specifications
B.Zero gap to maximize waterproofing
C.Grout-filled joints before tile adhesive cures
D.Continuous mortar bed extending onto drywall
Explanation: Criterion 7.4 requires expansion gaps to be maintained between walls and floor tiles per specifications, allowing for thermal and structural movement.
7Which joint characteristic is explicitly checked during wall tile installation per CON713332?
A.Horizontal joints checked for straightness with uniform width allowing tile tolerance
B.All joints filled with epoxy before tiles are placed
C.Joints staggered randomly without reference to layout lines
D.Vertical joints intentionally varied in width for aesthetics
Explanation: Criteria 3.3 and 3.8 require checking horizontal joint straightness, edge alignment, and maintaining straight uniform joints considering tile tolerance allowances.
8A wall area of 12 m² will be tiled with 20 cm × 20 cm ceramic tiles. Ignoring waste, how many tiles are required?
A.300 tiles
B.240 tiles
C.360 tiles
D.120 tiles
Explanation: Each tile area = 0.2 × 0.2 = 0.04 m². Tiles = 12 ÷ 0.04 = 300 tiles.
9When preparing cement or cement-based adhesive for wall tiles, what must the tile setter follow?
A.Manufacturer's instructions or recommendations
B.A fixed 1:1 ratio regardless of product type
C.Only job-site experience without reading labels
D.Adhesive mixed dry without adding water
Explanation: Criterion 3.1 requires adhesive preparation according to manufacturer's instructions or recommendations to achieve proper bond strength and workability.
10What is the purpose of maintaining even margins around openings, frames, and fittings during wall tiling?
A.Achieve a neat, symmetrical appearance and allow proper trim or cut tile installation
B.Eliminate the need for any cutting of tiles
C.Prevent use of grout in wet areas
D.Increase the number of full tiles required
Explanation: Criterion 3.5 requires even margins around openings and fittings where applicable, ensuring balanced cuts and professional finish around penetrations.
