According to CSI MasterFormat, which division covers concrete work?

Correct Answer

B) Division 03 - Concrete

Division 03 specifically covers all concrete work including cast-in-place concrete, precast concrete, and concrete accessories in the CSI MasterFormat system.

Answer Options
A
Division 02 - Existing Conditions
B
Division 03 - Concrete
C
Division 05 - Metals
D
Division 04 - Masonry

Why This Is the Correct Answer

Division 03 - Concrete is the correct CSI MasterFormat division that covers all concrete work. This includes cast-in-place concrete, precast concrete, concrete accessories, concrete reinforcement, concrete restoration, and specialized concrete applications. The CSI MasterFormat is organized numerically, and Division 03 is specifically designated for all concrete-related construction activities and materials.

Why the Other Options Are Wrong

Option A: Division 02 - Existing Conditions

Division 02 - Existing Conditions covers site assessment, demolition, site preparation, and environmental remediation work. It deals with existing site conditions and preparatory work before new construction begins, not concrete work.

Option C: Division 05 - Metals

Division 05 - Metals covers structural steel, metal fabrications, metal decking, and ornamental metals. This division is for metal construction materials and assemblies, not concrete work.

Option D: Division 04 - Masonry

Division 04 - Masonry covers brick, block, stone, and other masonry units and assemblies. While masonry and concrete are both structural materials, they are separate divisions with concrete having its own dedicated division.

Memory Technique

Remember '03 = Concrete' - both start with 'C' and the number 3 looks like a backwards 'C' for Concrete.
