In CSI MasterFormat Division 03, what type of work is typically specified?
Correct Answer
B) Concrete work
Division 03 covers concrete work including cast-in-place concrete, precast concrete, concrete reinforcement, and related concrete construction. This is a fundamental CSI division organization.
Why This Is the Correct Answer
Division 03 in the CSI MasterFormat is specifically designated for concrete work. This division encompasses all aspects of concrete construction including cast-in-place concrete, precast concrete units, concrete reinforcement (rebar), concrete accessories, and specialty concrete applications. The CSI MasterFormat uses a standardized numbering system where Division 03 has been consistently assigned to concrete work across all versions of the format.
Why the Other Options Are Wrong
Option A: Masonry work
Masonry work is covered under Division 04 in the CSI MasterFormat, which includes brick, block, stone, and other masonry materials and installation methods.
Option C: Metals work
Metals work is specified in Division 05 of the CSI MasterFormat, covering structural steel, metal fabrications, ornamental metals, and expansion joints.
Option D: Wood and plastics work
Wood and plastics work falls under Division 06 in the CSI MasterFormat, including rough carpentry, finish carpentry, architectural woodwork, and plastic fabrications.
Memory Technique
Use '03 = Concrete' - think 'Zero-Three poured ConCrete' where the 'C' sounds connect the division number to the material type.
Reference Hint
CSI MasterFormat Division listings in construction specifications reference materials or the Florida Building Code administrative sections that reference standard specification formats
