Question

For fourth class building the doors and windows shall be of _________ wood or country wood.

(a) Sal

(b) Neem

(c) Teak

(d) Mango

I have been asked this question in my homework.

My doubt stems from General Specifications topic in section Specifications, Estimation of Quantities of Materials and Transport of Civil Engineering Drawing

Answer 1

Correct choice is (d) Mango

Easiest explanation: Technically mango is a hardwood with dense grains, so it has the strength to bear the weight necessary for chairs and heavy tables, but it’s still soft enough that it’s relatively easy to work with, requiring no special tools on behalf of the manufacturers. Mango furniture can stand the wear and tear of time as well as your grandmother’s oak kitchen table, but, unlike traditional hardwood furniture, it’s more affordable and, as we’ll get into, completely sustainable.
