This document provides an evaluation for a rescue course lesson on collapsed structures. It contains questions to test understanding of key concepts covered in the lesson, including: [1] identifying true and false statements about debris removal techniques; [2] classifying different lever examples; [3] defining the concept of a lever; and [4] identifying the components of a lever and factors to consider before lifting a load. The evaluation aims to assess comprehension of proper procedures for safely removing debris and using levers in collapsed structure rescue situations.

1. Place an (F) for false or a (T) for true, as appropriate.
For debris removal:
__F__ Debris is removed in no specific order as soon as possible.
__T__ Verify the way in which the building collapsed and the condition of the structural components. __T__ Start by removing the larger pieces that are loose. __F__ Move and remove debris under pressure. __T__ Open a path among the debris, as deep as needed and wide enough to circulate. __V__ Organize a human chain to remove the debris.
2. In the box by each figure, write the class of lever:
CLASS 1
CLASS 2
CLASE 3
CLASS 3
Nov-07 Surface Rescue Techniques INSTR-EVAL 7-1
Collapsed Structures Rescue Course – Light Level
3. Define the concept of lever
A lever is a rigid element that rests on a fixed support point (fulcrum) allowing transmission of movement to a heavy object in order to lift or move it.
4. Place an X by the correct answers:
The components of a lever are: _____ Support __X__ Fulcrum _____ Lifting __X__ Force __X__ Load
5. Write the 4 factors to consider before lifting a load:
Weight of the Load ____________________________________________
Whether previous shoring exist _________________________________ Whether the structure to be lifted is anchored to other structures ________ Potential or existing hazards that can arise by lifting the load ___________
